A beautiful story about family, love, self-acceptance, regret & atonement
Content Warnings: (not between m/m) character death, suicide (not shown and not sure if that's what happened)Overall: I was moved to tears by a beautiful story about what it really means to be family (it's more than biology), how to accept oneself, and trying to right past wrongs. FYI the title on GagaOOLala is "On The Way Home."
What I Liked
- the themes of the story that I mentioned: family, love, self-acceptance, regret, atonement/2nd chances
- the friend's reactions were realistic, almost like going through stages of grief such as disbelief, anger, sadness and acceptance
Room For Improvement
- the m/m relationship was too off screen for me. It was a major factor of what happened, but if I hadn't read the synopsis, I wouldn't have even known anything until too far into the movie. I'm not saying that I wanted NSFW scenes, just to show the love between the characters and how the daughter was feeling left out (see below point)
- I realize the daughter was going through quite a lot, but there could have been additional motivation (like showing what was happening at school for example, was she being bullied? did she see classmates display homophobia and it made her worried?) to give her actions more reasoning behind them

Opravdu výborný film, co se týká tolerance. Snad mi tam malinko více chybělo rozvinutí příběhu mezi Minem a Hsienem, ale sympatickým herectvím to vyvážil Kaiser Chuang, který byl za tuto roli Mina oceněn vítězstvím na Golden Bell Award 2015. Pěkné.
