In My Mother's Skin

World War II is nearing its end. The Philippines is under the yoke of the Japanese army, although the soldiers are beginning to lose control of the islands. In the midst of the chaos, the father of a family flees, and his young daughter is forced to take care of her mother, whose health is rapidly deteriorating. To do so, she enlists the help of a fairy with a voracious appetite. This co-production between the Philippines, Singapore and Taiwan was screened at the past edition of Sundance, where it garnered good reviews.
