Synopsis: A Chinese Girl living overseas chooses to fight back domestic violence and racism abuse in her nightmare, but what would she do in the reality?

There are stereotypes of an Asian woman who has a relationship with a white man. One of those is people always doubting her purpose that is to receive a permanent visa through partnership. The stereotype makes foreign-born partners disadvantaged in relationship because the local partners might also think so and would be abusive and controlling. I make this film to raise the public concern on this minority group of women and to encourage domestic violence victims not to fear.

Directed by Zhang XIaoan (Australia)
