Sensitively crafted family drama about a Hong Kong girl who discovers in the wake of her father’s death that she has two sisters, one in Taiwan and one in mainland China. To settle her father’s debt, she must reunite with them to run the family’s hot pot restaurant. Each women’s diverse background is richly illustrated in this understated portrait of the greater Chinese community, adapted from a 2010 novel by popular romance author Amy Cheung.

“A film told from a feminist point-of-view by three smart, strong, and self-reliant actresses who bring plausibility to their characters.” ~ Scott Marks, San Diego Reader.
