Synopsis

This film tells the stories of four Indonesian female caregivers of different generations, who have worked in Taiwan for almost ten years. On working days, they look after their elderly or young patients in their employers’ homes and on their days off, they come to the main hall of Taipei Station with their friends.
The main hall of Taipei Station is like their living room. In there, they liberate themselves from their jobs as a caregiver and fully demonstrate themselves while many issues concerning the female migrant workers are unveiled and reflected on.

Director Statement

The main hall of Taipei Train Station is a magic place. When the Indonesian migrant workers come to the station hall on their day off, they not only forget their sadness but laugh out loud with joy, completely being themselves. Everyone is welcome to come to the station hall; together, people sit on the floor, enjoying this unique and beautiful cultural landscape.
