DAVID-SONIA

The bond between a Taiwanese immigrant student and a British transgender human rights lawyer exemplifies kindness values that transcend national, gender, and the definitions of family and home.

Adapted from a true story, Taiwanese immigrant student T rented a room in a London homestay, experiencing warmth akin to living with family. The landlord, David, is a British human rights lawyer who has devoted years to assisting refugees. David discreetly assumes another identity as Sonia, dressing as an elegant lady within the hidden confines of the legal community.

This bond, transcending nationality and redefining notions of home and family, was abruptly severed when David-Sonia was pushed onto the subway tracks by a transgender individual whom David had previously assisted, forcing an end to the connection between T and David-Sonia. At the time of the accident, Sonia was dressed in female attire, causing shockwaves in British society.
