Drifting Flower [2008]


Three women in three different periods navigate the waters of sexual identity in Zero Chou's ([[Spider Lillies) sensitive portrait of the search for self and love. Three loosely connected episodes illuminate the flux of life: Young Meigo struggles to understand her feelings of jealousy when her older sister begins a romantic relationship; Alzehimer's sufferer Lily lives her life between moments of lucidity and rememberances of her dead lover with the help of an old friend; and teenager Chalkie tries to reconcile her awakening sexuality with her body.
