Granny Must Die
Synopsis
An absurd comedy about the daily life of a three-generational Hakka household in Taipei. The main characters are Huichiao, her grandmother Chunmei, Chunmei’s son Fusang, and daughter-in-law Lichun. The story begins on a stormy night when Huichiao quietly approaches and murders Chunmei, coldly saying, "Granny, just die!" As the story develops, we learn that their conflicts stem from not only daily trivialities but also past memories and complex family relationships.
