Eve is a precocious nine year old girl with a wild imagination growing up in a traditional Chinese immigrant family in Vancouver where Confucian doctrines, superstitious obsessions and divinie visions about. When Buddhism and Catholicism are thrown into the mix, life for Eve and her 11 year-old prim and authoritative sister, Karena, escalates into a fantasia of catastrophe, sainthood and cultural confusion. This film will pierce viewers' hearts with its lyrical, humorous and emotional journey of a young girl and her sister striving to grow up in a world where childhood is lonely and the world is full of wonder.
"one of the most enchanting and memorable films ever made in this country" --Jenni Punter, Globe and Mail.
"Luminous! Intelligent, delicate and touching...One of the most beloved films at Sundance" - Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times.
