Abstract

Two grandmothers from Taiwan are the stars of a film that has been nominated for an Academy Award (Academy Awards are famous American film prizes, also called Oscars). Their grandson filmed them for a short documentary (factual film). It is called Nai Nai and Wài Pó and is a look into the lives of best friends Yi Yan Fuei, who is 97, and Chang Li Hua, who is 86, who live together in California, US. The film was made by their grandson Sean Wang, who has been filming his grannies since he was little. "I've never dreamed of anything like this," Yi says of her new fame, "It's like I've been to another world."Chang Li Hua (left) and Yi Yan Fuei. [Extracted from the article]
