作品介绍

Brief introduction of the work

《故土四梳妹魂》讲述了顺德梳妹阿朱的故事。年轻的阿朱姑娘不愿意嫁给她的未婚妻。在新婚之夜，她把自己缝进了一个密不透风的茧里，迫使新郎取消了婚礼，把她赶出了自己的家。阿朱受到梳子姐妹姐妹会的欢迎，并发誓要一辈子单身。这部短片是一部关于被称为自梳女的独立女性历史的动画片。

Four Comb Sister spirits in the Land of the Dead recount the story of Zhu—a Comb Sister from Shunde.  The young maiden Zhu is reluctant to marry her betrothed.  On her wedding night, she sews herself into an impenetrable cocoon, forcing the groom to cancel the marriage and cast her out of his home.  Zhu is welcomed by the sisterhood of the Comb Sisters and vows to remain single for the rest of her life.  This short film is a beautifully animated tale about the history of the independent women known as the Comb Sisters.
