Drifting Flowers (漂浪青春). dir. Zero Chou (周美玲). 2008.

Directed by Teddy Award winner Zero Chou, Drifting Flowers is a 2008 Taiwanese lesbian film that brings together three stories of sexuality, gender identity, and acceptance. The film follows different lesbians as they form both romantic and platonic bonds, supporting each other in their journey towards seeking their true identity — and, perhaps, a place where they can be their true selves.
