With sharp humour and heartfelt honesty, Of Mothers and Longing will open with a documentary that follows filmmaker Vitty Ho @vittyvittyho as she turns her own egg donation journey into a witty, tender reflection on motherhood. Equal parts funny and touching, it offers a refreshingly personal take on the emotional and physical sides of giving life.
Fantastic Eggs and Where to Find Them / Vitty Ho / 32min. / 2024 / Taiwan
Synopsis:
This is an egg donation diary of a 27-year-old girl, as well as a love letter to her unborn child, whom she will never meet.
Five blood draws, nine ovulation injections, two ovulation-triggering shots, countless pills and growth hormones, and one general anesthesia surgery, resulting in 40 eggs, NT$99,000, and a lifetime of endless concern.
