午后飞船

On a humid afternoon, Lin Mingming, an eight-year-old girl, gets caught between her parents' quarrel. The career pursuit and ordinary life heavily burden this family with the imbalance and struggle between parent-child relationship and personal value. The exhausted, impatient, and disappointed parents seem strange to their daughter. "ufo:pm" presents the struggle and imbalance between three ordinary family members' daily lives and their individual willingness: a daughter that doesn't fit into the behaved and polite stereotype, a mother that struggles to sacrifice her own career pursuit and compromises to the family, a father that carries the financial burden and strives to obtain success. This could not be more common in every Chinese household. The three personalities collide on a dining table.
