A GIRL NAMED CHAO-TI

When a name defines her fate, a girl begins to question the life chosen for her.

In 1920s Taiwan, seven-year-old Chao-ti is sent away as a child bride, growing up under the heavy weight of labor and expectation. Only through learning does she glimpse the possibility of another life. As she comes of age, the path before her grows increasingly narrow, forcing her to confront the gap between who she is and who she is expected to be. In a world that demands her silent submission, she holds onto the fragile hope that one day, she might finally walk away.
