A Mother and Eleven Children (1966) is a heartwarming tale that delves into the life of a large peasant family, where, since 1925, a new child has been born every two years. The narrative unfolds as the father is summoned to serve in the military in China, leaving the family to navigate life without him. Meanwhile, one of the daughters is granted permission to pursue her dreams and becomes a teacher. The story reaches a poignant climax when the youngest daughter pens a prize-winning poem that beautifully celebrates the strength and dedication of her mother.
