Kids’ Struggle To Watch ‘EEAAO’ With Immigrant Parents Shows Why It’s Important

Michelle Yeoh as Evelyn and Stephanie Hsu as Joy in 'Everything Everywhere All at Once' from A24. As they stand in a parking lot, they are in focus while the storefronts and cars around them are out of focus. They are hugging. We see Evelyn from the side, but not her face. She has long, black hair and is wearing a long-sleeved, red sweater with a gold design on the sleeves. Joy is a young Chinese woman who is pressing her head against Evelyn's shoulder as they embrace. Her eyes are closed, and she has a pained expression on her face. She's wearing a pink jacket.

If only more of our PGM immigrant parents were interested in healing and preventing trauma. Then again, that is itself a trauma response.
