Cheng Chia-yi

Tim Kao, the meticulous head chef of a five-star hotel in Taiwan, is set to marry his Hong Kong fiance Daisy Wu. But Tim’s divorced parents refuse to attend the same ceremony, and each insists on hosting their own. To complicate things further, the Feng Shui master chooses the same auspicious date for both events. Tim, Daisy, their wedding planner Regina, and the best man Tsai must orchestrate two weddings simultaneously in the same hotel, without either parent finding out. Surrounded by a strict father, a demanding mother, and a cast of sharp-tongued relatives, Tim must confront the traumas of his upbringing and ask himself: is he truly ready to start a new family of his own?

Feng runs away from her rural home to pursue singing in Taipei but is trafficked to Japan as a prostitute. Years later, she returns to Taiwan, burdened by guilt and avoiding her family while secretly sending money home. Her brother Ming, now a police officer, searches for her, unaware of the life she now leads. Their paths cross under difficult circumstances, forcing both siblings to confront their past and present.

Elder sister, Spring, seeks her origins before heading to university, Autumn, the mother, grapples with conceiving a child through artificial insemination, Summer, the younger brother, tries to engage with a paternal figure he barely knows just before his military service, and Winter, the father, desperately tries to change his fate as problems mount up.

Anne—seated in an obstetrics and gynecology clinic—grapples with a heart-wrenching dilemma: whether to terminate her unexpected pregnancy to pursue a high-paying job in the United States or stay in Taiwan and embrace life as a single mother. As the conflict between her rationality and emotions intensifies, her deep-seated fear of family life emerges like an unfathomable monster from within, threatening to consume her entirely.
