Mother's Dress

Rosie often feels out of place with other high-achieving Asian peers and their strict Asian parents, especially the family of her best mate Lily, whom she helps sneak cigarettes after school. During a fitting with her tailor mum, Rosie finally opens up about her artistic dream, only to realise that her mother may not be as easy and harmless as she once believed.
