« The film is basically an intimate conversation between Mina [Shum] and her sister interspersed with cut-away footage. Absent from the film is the father. In fact, much of the film tells secrets about the father and reveals strategies for how to deal with him. The daughters learn from the mother, and the mother—stronger and much livelier than the mother in Double Happiness—leads the charge. »
