A Dire Strait, written and directed by Liang-Chun Lin (Still Rolling, Thicker Than Blood) is a thriller short based on Eastern Asian postpartum traditions. It explores the boundaries issue within Asian families, different beliefs in motherhood as well as the identity crisis of a new Asian mother.

In 22 mins, A Dire Strait follows Demi through her experience of postpartum confinement, dietary restrictions and unbearable family pressure. Although Demi tries to be as cooperative as possible to please her in-laws, the weeks-long confinement and endless chicken soup push her to her limit. She desperately needs a break; however, just one misstep spirals into her worst nightmare...

A DIRE STRAIT is now set to have its world premiere at the prestigious Dances With Films Festival, June 9-19, 2022. A Dire Strait is included in the Short Film Group #4, which will be screening on June 12, 12:30 PM along with 4 other great short films.
