Synopsis
The story is set in Taiwan during the economic boom of the 1960s and 1970s, when many women were forced to sacrifice themselves due to financial pressures at home, carrying regrets for the rest of their lives. The protagonist, “Grandma,” represents countless young women of that era.

The animation uses threads and scissors as recurring motifs throughout the film. The entanglement and continuity of thread symbolize the constraints of the past on Grandma, while scissors represent her awakening will—cutting off the obsessions she cannot let go of.
