导演阐述

这不是一部宣扬家庭温暖的电影，这是一部用外科手术刀剖析而成的电影，从当代北京一对母女生活的横截面入手，凛冽与戏剧并存，重新解释了当代中国的柔情史和快乐。

Director’s Statement

This is not a film to praise family. Girls Always Happy depicts the life of a mother and a daughter in a Beijing hutong with a fierce, but romantic touch. It is a movie, but also a medical record, of sorts. With both cruelness and drama, the film re-explains China’s history of tenderness and happiness.

剧情简介

刚和男友分手的小雾，因一笔意外的稿费而在北京胡同里租了一套房子，期待自己一个人的世界。不料母亲因无法与家中的老人相处，搬来与她同住。奇特的战争开始了。每天一睁眼，在屋子的每⼀个角落，母亲荒谬的生活规则与偏执的行为方式折磨着小雾。小雾也被母亲的思维逻辑潜移默化的影响着。两个极度缺乏安全感的女人，在饭桌， 尿盆，碗筷中互相攻击，防御。在战争高潮，她们已无法面对彼此。母女各自开始了一场恋爱，获得了暂时的平衡，但最终都失败了。

Synopsis

After breaking up with her boyfriend, Wu rents a house in a Beijing hutong out of an unexpected royalty. While she is excited about living alone, her mother moves in with her because she cannot bear to live with the old man at home. A bizarre war sets off between them in every corner on every day. Tortured by the absurd daily rules of life and the paranoid behavior of her mother, Wu is also influenced by her mentality and logic bit by bit. The two women, feeling extremely insecure, attack and defend each other on the table and in the urine pot. During the climax of their war, they cannot bear to confront each other. Each of them starts a new relationship, and the short-lived balance fails ultimately.

“一段岁月从一个人的眼角流逝和一个时代在城市中落幕同样值得玩味和铭记。导演用极其细腻准确的笔触勾勒出一段属于母女二人的柔情史。”

“A period of age flowing from aperson’s eye corner and an era passing in a city both deserve to be remembered and cogitated. The director uses an exquisite and accurate touch to portrait a gentle story between the mother and the daughter.”
