異鄉女子

A Chinese woman searches for her brother in New York. Her quest spans universities, Chinatown, mahjong parlors, and parties, where she encounters old and new friends. Amidst cultural influences, confusion arises—will it lead to a sense of belonging or a heartbreak? Claire Pei's low-budget debut film gained attention for its allegorical narrative and non-commercial vibe different from Taiwan's mainstream cinema. However, her directing career in Taiwan could't extend, despite her continued involvement in acting and screenwriting.
