About the Film

In everyone’s eyes, Mr. Lin is a decent guy. The handsome piano teacher not only looks after his landlord, Mrs. Chou, an elderly grandmother with late-stage diabetes, but also takes care of her orphaned nine-year-old grandson, Yo-yu. But when Mrs. Chou passes away, Yo-yu’s uncle, Li-gang, returns from overseas to discover that Lin has adopted Yo-yu, now the legal owner of the apartment.

Suspecting that Lin murdered his mother to take control of her property, Li-gang contacts the police, igniting an investigation that uncovers a very different side to the seemingly perfect tenant…

Director’s Statement

What is the mechanism of love?
What is family?
What is normal?
What is freedom?

Every time I look at my children, I can’t help but wonder: Can blood relations, law,
property — these things that we can see — define this indescribable yet powerful
feeling in my heart?
