COLLABORATION

They (a collaboration guided by Chun Hua Catherine Dong)

​They takes audiences into four women’s world to closely examine
their ritualized daily lives, their obsessions, their struggles, and
their determinations of being who they are.

​The four women are different but mirror each other: they deal with
difficult transitions, ambivalent relationships, and desires that trouble them
while also celebrating their own existences in a subversive but almost meditative way.

​The title of this film is derived from the gender-neutral pronoun they.

​They in this film is both singular and plural, referring the women as unique
individuals who are plural, but whose bodies have been marked as the other.
