Dear Mother, I Meant to Write about Death

Siyi Chen
China, Finland
Festival history
It’s never easy to talk about mortality with our loved ones. It’s even harder between a physician mother who excels at hiding her emotions under rationality and a daughter who spent her childhood solving maths problems next to the morgue. They avoid conversation about mortality and related feelings at all costs - until the mother becomes a cancer patient and the daughter becomes her caregiver.
