Saving Face
Description
In a story that looks strange and controversial, as it tells the story of the gay world. The story begins with a Chinese-American lesbian girl who has a relationship with her traditional mother, who are reluctant to appear to the public with secret love that runs counter to China's seemingly static cultural and social expectations.

July 01, 2005
Wu has a keen ear for the rhythm of speech, and much of the humour rests in the conversations' staccato beat -- in breezy put-downs and tossed-off asides and disgruntled mutterings.
