[quote]Winning eight Australian Film Institute Awards (out of 14 nominations), two Golden Horse Awards (out of seven nominations), and many other awards around the globe, "The Home Song Stories" (Australia 2007, 103 min.) is the Australian's entry for Oscar nomination in the Foreign Language Film category. Based on Chinese Australian writer/director Tony Ayres's own childhood memories, a very personal story about family, love, survival, betrayal, and forgiveness.
Through the eyes of an 11-years-old boy Tom (Joel Lok), the film shares us with the bumpy ride of his new immigrant family living in Australia in the 1960s. Tom's mom Rose (Joan Chen) is a glamorous nightclub singer from Shanghai. When Rose performed in a Hong Kong night club, she met and wed an Australia sailor Bill, and moved to Australia with her son Tom and daughter May. Only 10 days later, she left Bill and moved around from "uncle" to "uncle." Finally, Rose fell in love with young chef "Uncle Joe," (Qi Yuwu), an illegal immigrant.
However, the ordinary family life didn't last long. The relationships among the family members went complicated when unrequited love became part of their lives.
The film is deeply personal and touching, but not sentimental. Just like Tom, the 11-years-old boy, we gradually begin to understand what it takes to be able to survive and to bring food to the table.[/quote]
