This is Ruyou Lin's graduation short film from Southwest University. The film focuses on the character Wang Man, who is five months pregnant, discovers her husband's homosexuality and considers having an abortion as well as abandoning the family. The film casts doubt on the Chinese belief of family continuity through birth, telling the idea that when the foundation of traditional family relationships is shaken by homosexuality, the concept's disadvantages become accentuated, and the woman, the gay, and the child all become victims.
