Little Big Women (Chinese: 孤味) is a 2020 Taiwanese drama film directed by Joseph Hsu and produced by Vivian Hsu, adapting from an eponymous 2017 short film. Hsu also stars in a lead role, alongside Chen Shu-fang, Hsieh Ying-xuan, Sun Ke-fang, Ding Ning, and Buffy Chen. The film premiered in October 2020 at the Busan International Film Festival.[1] The film became a box office hit in Taiwan.[2]

Plot

Lin Xiu-ying (Chen Shu-fang) is a well-known restaurant owner in Tainan. Without the support of her husband, she has single handedly raised three daughters by selling shrimp rolls at a roadside stall. Since then, her daughters have grown up with remarkable achievements. Her eldest daughter A-Qing (Hsieh Ying-xuan) is an international dancer, the second daughter A-Yu (Vivian Hsu) works as a plastic surgeon in Taipei and has a daughter whom she plans to send to study abroad (Buffy Chen), and the youngest daughter Jia-jia (Sun Ke-fang) oversees the restaurant business. On the day of her 70th birthday, Xiu-ying receives news of her husband's passing. While preparing for his funeral, she unexpectedly meets Ms Tsai (Ding Ning) who accompanied her husband through his old age, grappling with a long-buried resentment held over the years.

Cast

Also appearing in the film are Lung Shao-hua as Chen Bo-chiang (陳伯昌), Lin Sho-ying's husband and the father of the Chen siblings; Weber Yang as a younger version of Bo-chiang; and Chang Han as Yang Cheng-hsien (楊政賢), a fellow surgeon and the husband of Chen Wan-yu. Ning Chang cameos as He Ching-mei (何晴眉), the supposed third sister of the Chen siblings who was sent away and raised separately. Chang agreed to make a cameo appearance at the invitation of Vivian Hsu without even reading the script and flew to Taiwan from China to participate in the shoot for one day.[3]
