Mona is going to do her research in biochemistry. Her mother feels lucky to have even managed to learn to read and write. There are more than oceans between this woman who emigrated from China and her Canadian-born daughter. Yet when filmmaker Mina Shum gets together with her mother and sister Mona, far more seems to bind them together than divide them. Shum, director of the feature-length film 'Double Happiness,' brings all the conflicts together in this candid, warm and entertaining film.
