Synopsis

Have you ever wondered what your life would be like if you’d made a different choice? Writers-directors Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, collectively known as Daniels, offer one such example in this gloriously entertaining kaleidoscope of a movie filled with humour, pathos,  action, existential dread and family drama – in fact, a little bit of everything!

Evelyn Wang, an exhausted Chinese American woman, just can't seem to finish her tax return. Instead, she is swept up in an insane adventure, where she alone can save the world by exploring other universes connecting with the lives she could have led…

The great Michelle Yeo magnificently seizes the role of a lifetime in this zany, idiosyncratic, and big-hearted escapade that has unexpectedly triumphed at the American box office. Perhaps love and optimism can conquer all.
