Description The framework for this familial fable is the Chen family coming together to celebrate Chinese New Year. It is apparent that parents Henry and Rose, and their children, Ken and Jen, have had a troubled year, and their various trials, traumas and tribulations are revealed in a series of vignettes—both of recent events and memories of a more distant past.
