It was an old tradition.
:06:13
Only the most
dutiful of daughters...

:06:15
- would put her own flesh in a soup...
- Ma.

:06:18
to save her mother's life.
:06:24
My mother did this
with her whole heart...

:06:27
even though my grandmother
had disowned her.

:06:33
- This is how a daughter
honors her mother.
- Ma.

:06:37
The pain of the flesh
is nothing.

:06:40
The pain you must forget.
:06:44
This is the most
important sacrifice...

:06:48
a daughter can make
for her mother.

:07:05
Mama, don't leave.
:07:13
Mama, don't leave.
:07:25
An-Mei, Mama's leaving.
:07:30
Respect your uncle
and your aunties.

:07:35
Remember, be obedient!
:07:44
Don't forget your Mama.
:07:50
If you take this child away...
:07:52
she will become like you.
:07:54
Never able to face anyone.
:07:56
Never able to lift her head.
