Our Sparkles | Catelyne Ma
The film depicts a relationship struggle between a mother who sees no value in art, and her child who can’t find herself pursuing science, which her mother would prefer.
Many parents who’ve gone through a rough childhood tend to have a fixed definition of life goals and happiness, but what they’ve forgotten about is that, children from a different generation are unlikely to experience similar life-altering events as they grow up. This creates very different attitudes regarding personal goals. We all have our own values and reasons to make our life choices. When we’re each encouraged to have our own shiny, beautiful colours, we can create a powerfully vivid, white sparkle together.
Sparkle of stars shine in different colours.
