Trailer: The Head of the Family by Wang Xijie

In the busy corner of Taipei, there lives Ye Lanxin (Bao Qijing), a woman who is in retirement. Outside the family, she was an excellent professional woman who ran a children’s art classroom; back home, she was a good woman, the perfect wife, mother, daughter-in-law, and daughter. She spun in and out like a top, always hoping that she would be able to do everything and solve the tasks entrusted to her by everyone around her.

Her newly-retired husband, Lo Tai Wai (Kou Shixun), is gradually occupying space in the home with antique collections; Sun Qinfang (Yu Jia’an), an old mother who is disabled, lives alone in a nursing home, her memory and consciousness gradually blur, and always reminds her daughter to take her home; the younger daughter Luo Jianning (Ke Jiahui) suddenly returns because her marriage and work are in danger, and her family has become a refuge for shelving her belongings; Her son Luo Jiayu, who is far abroad, is uncertain about whether to move his family back to Taiwan to work, although he is a symbol of luo family honor, he is always absent. Each of Lan Xin’s family members has their own needs: the space sovereignty in the home is constantly occupied, and she is constantly losing the space she desires, and at the same time, she feels that she is a derelict mother, daughter, and wife, so she begins to fantasize about buying a house to settle the whole family.

One day, Lan Xin looked at a high-priced new house, and the short-term high-interest investment of girlfriend Ah Xiang (played by Lu Yijing) and student Guan Ting (played by Li Chun) could solve all the problems at once? Lan Xin, who unconsciously deviated from the track of reason and struggled to move forward, seems to have begun to gradually be unable to distinguish between dreams and reality due to the pressure of reality, whether she can be between dreams and imaginations?
