Another film that I recommend that deals with issues of family is "Yi Yi", a film by Edward Yang.
The story follows the lives of a Taiwanese family and dealing with issues of life in a Confucian world: taking care of one's elderly parents, dealing with kids who are too modernized, and financial woes that come into everyone's life, in one shape of another. It is part comedy and drama--the themes are universal and I believe it is one of the greatest film epitomizing the life of a family in Taiwan. [Edit by="seun on Jan 15, 1:27:56 PM"][/Edit]
