Fragrance of the First Flower is selected for 2021 Series Mania

Statement from Series Mania 2021 Finalist Notification It is a sensitive, profoundly human portrait of queer womanhood, both characteristically Taiwanese and universal. In terms of format, its episodic nature emphasizes the doubts and bottled-up emotions of the two protagonists, and manages to say a lot in very little time. The very first sequence at the wedding party, in particular, perfectly encapsulates the story and characters. Finally, a big shout out to both actresses which we think do powerful work in very delicate flourishes.
