✨Fall Film Screening: A silent before farewell《不完美告別》 🎬

Following veterinarian Liao Kuan-Chih through his daily practice, the film gently witnesses the final chapter shared between pets and the families who love them. As owners grapple with the difficult choice of continuing care or saying goodbye through home euthanasia, moments of uncertainty, grief, and quiet devotion unfold before the camera.
