Lin Chia-hui

Jin-Hui Chiu is a 28-year-old single girl recently returned home from Japan. Sean Shih is a 35-year-old Silicon Valley bachelor in search of a wife. Will these two overseas Taiwanese ever tie the knot and live happily ever after? They need some miracles and let us see if God will do the math for them? We shall all find love in Taipei, Daqiaotou area.

What haunts us is not only death, but aging. Pei-Hua is drawn like a blurred sketch—gray, undefined, embodying the quiet experience of a woman growing older.Mothers often remain fixed in place, becoming a point of reference for their daughters’ journeys. Each of us carries a “carry-on”—unfinished burdens or lessons meant to be faced in this life. When we finally leave, do these carry-ons remain? In the film, a fire becomes a ritual of release, a way of saying goodbye. Life is rarely pure joy or sorrow, and The Carry-On is no exception.
