Synopsis
University dropout Lin Chu-sheng works at a funeral home, witnessing raw human grief and reflecting on life.
In search of her dreams, Lin Chu-sheng quits university, leaves home, and starts working for a funeral director. While she may work with the dead, most of her time is spent dealing with the emotions of those still living: a father unable to accept his son's suicide; a bigamist's families meeting only after his death; a mother unwilling to let a child go; and parents unsure if their son's body will ever be found. Lin Chu-sheng witnesses the full range of human experience and reflects on her own family and life. This is the story of the emotions that linger during a funeral process, told through the perspective of a new employee. (Source: Nazca Éditions, translated)
