A single mother and her two daughters return to Taipei after several years of living in the countryside to open a stall at a buzzing night market. Each, in their own way, will have to adapt to this new environment to make ends meet and succeed in maintaining the family unity. Three generations of family secrets begin to unravel after the youngest daughter - who’s left-handed - is told by her traditional grandfather to never use her “devil hand.”

A long-time collaborator of Sean Baker, filmmaker Shih-Ching Tsou makes her solo feature debut with a vivid and compelling family drama that won a distribution award at Cannes this year. Left-Handed Girl “pulses like Taipei after dark”, says Variety.
