Product Overview

They say love conquers all – but what if the trials are unuttered fears, unspoken resentments, a lack of intercultural understanding and a failure to accept the inevitable? Laurence Barber explores how these themes underpin Hong Khaou's stunning feature about a fragile partner and a frustrated mother brought together by the death of someone they both love.
