Film Introduction

Drama ▎28 mins ▎Huai-yu CHANG. Yung-han CHANG ▎2025

Anne—seated in an obstetrics and gynecology clinic—grapples with a heart-wrenching

dilemma: whether to terminate her unexpected pregnancy to pursue a high-paying job in the

United States or stay in Taiwan and embrace life as a single mother. As the conflict between her

rationality and emotions intensifies, her deep-seated fear of family life emerges like an

unfathomable monster from within, threatening to consume her entirely.
