Royal College of Art, MA Animation. Graduation Film 2020

Synopsis:

Eggs are fragile, but at the same time tough. My grandmother is an egg.

My grandmother was a T'ung-yang-his. She has lived up to her fate.
T'ung-yang-his is the traditional practice of pre-arranged marriage, selling a young girl to another family to be raised as a future daughter-in-law.

This tradition of T'ung-yang-hsi has vanished for decades, but the patriarchal shadow still lingers. This film reflects the patriarchy and women's oppression in Taiwan. Trying to be true to the documentary and historical context, it is done by doing interviews and research in the pre-production stage.

From microscopic to macroscopic, from personal witness to general phenomenon in society, the audiences may glimpse the long past, imagine women's fate in our own times, and look forward to striving for real gender equality in the future.
