The pacing is quite reflective, allowing moments to breathe, which contrasts sharply with her financial struggles. The performances, especially Mei’s, feel raw and genuine, capturing that blend of vulnerability and resilience. The practical effects used in her fantasy sequences are subtle but striking, adding a nice layer without overshadowing the narrative. This film captures the bittersweet nature of aspirations and the grind of life in a way that feels quite unique, you know?
