PÓPO

In a quiet Boston home, a Hong Kong immigrant family navigates a loved one’s final days in hospice. Eschewing overt commentary for quiet observation, the film captures the unspoken tensions and traditions at the intersection of Chinese heritage and American life. A restrained, unembellished portrait of the profound emotional complexities found in a family’s final time together.
