How far would a mother go to reverse her child's fate? Based on writer/director Ann Hu’s life story, Confetti follows a mother and daughter who travel from their small town in China to New York City. Inflicted with a learning disability, she is considered a strange girl, an outcast in her school and community. What no one recognizes, however, is that she possesses a gift waiting to be unlocked. The world seen through her eyes is unique and filled with magic. Their pursuit of the impossible is a rollercoaster, impacted by the numerous people who come into their lives and affect their journey along the way. What they discover, is that in a world where people are judged and often not seen, their courage to believe in themselves against all odds will eventually lead them to people who do see them for who they truly are.
