Handlung

Chien Wei-ssu documents her and her friends' perspective, studying abroad in Ohio State University, being there taiwanese students keen of structuralism, Claude Levi-Strauss and Jean Rouch. She delves into women's relation to men, to women, to their own body, to the menstrual cycle, historical national identity, gender identity and sexuality. In the process, she captures the silence and displacement of living overseas, as well as the intense intimacy between friends. Waiting for a menstrual period that never comes becomes a metaphor of suspension and the freedom of living in another country.
