SWEET DUMPLINGS
SHORT | 14 MIN
Yin and Lee are making dumplings in the kitchen of their restaurant. Yin is kneading dough; Lee is cutting meat and vegetables to make the filling. They are preparing the favorite food of their daughter Tim Tim, who passed away three years before. While they are cautiously folding the dumplings, they are thinking of the beautiful and painful moments. In silence… each with their own memories.
