Hi, Mom  (Nihao, Li Huanying 2021) is the first film directed by Jia Ling, a comedian. An autobiographical movie, it develops a mom–daughter-reuniting visional field in the mode of a time-travelling film. In fantasy scenes set in the 1980s, the film reshapes the “mother–daughter” emotional logic with that of “sisterhood”, using comic effects created by misplaced identities to reveal the tragic crux of the cruel reality of “forever losing maternal love”. “The art of analyzing emotions” is pursued through “interpreting visions”. The protagonist ultimately reconciles with reality not by controlling the vision rationally and subjectively, but by creating a deeper vision—a “true fairy tale”. This is for the purpose of retaining a scene of imagined realization of desire: bidding a fond farewell to mom in the vision, fulfilling a wish in the farewell and reconciling with reality and ego in the visional “mutual reconciliation”.
