Saving Face

Description
This thriller begins with many powerful events that look quite different. The story begins with a Chinese-American lesbian girl who has a relationship with her traditional mother. This girl and her mother may be reluctant to appear to the public with a secret love that runs counter to cultural expectations that may contradict that strange relationship.

The message here, as in every quirky ethnic romantic comedy, is 'follow your heart.' But wouldn't it be great if for once the characters cared more about the continuity of antiquated cultural traditions than their own personal happiness?

Wu has a keen ear for the rhythm of speech, and much of the humour rests in the conversations' staccato beat -- in breezy put-downs and tossed-off asides and disgruntled mutterings.
