Other name:

Description:

"My Great Mother" delves into the intricate relationship between Ziming and her extraordinary mother, Dr. Yuan. A distinguished genetic scientist, Dr. Yuan maintained rigorous academic and lifestyle expectations for Ziming, shaping her daughter's world with demanding precision. Their lives, often governed by Dr. Yuan’s groundbreaking scientific pursuits, create a unique and challenging dynamic within their family.

However, their world is shattered when Dr. Yuan tragically dies in a car accident, leaving Ziming isolated and grief-stricken. In a startling and controversial development, the biological company where Dr. Yuan conducted her pioneering research intervenes. They present Ziming with an innovative, yet ethically complex, solution to her profound loss: a bionic mother, designated 009. This advanced artificial intelligence is meticulously designed to emulate Dr. Yuan's personality and continue her strict guidance.

The film explores Ziming’s profound struggle to reconcile with this synthetic replacement. Can 009 genuinely replace the emotional void left by her biological mother, or is it merely a sophisticated machine? The narrative thoughtfully examines themes of grief, the evolving definition of family, the ethical implications of artificial intelligence, and the enduring legacy of a brilliant scientist in the face of human emotion.
