About Motherland
After a long absence abroad, young Asian American woman Raffi Tang is called home when her estranged mother is murdered. She becomes increasingly drawn into a web of deception and incompetence while at the same time dealing with her own grief.
Directed by Doris Yeung, Motherland leans on a strong ensemble — Françoise Yip, Byron Mann, Diana Caswell — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2011.
