Sometimes, families just don’t click. Motherland is about a Chinese American family videochats across literal and metaphorical distances. A college freshman plans to study abroad in China stir up cultural clashes between her assimilated mother and her grandmother. Meanwhile, her father’s secret struggles threaten if she will be able to go at all.

家家有本难唸的经！《祖国》讲述一个美国华人家庭，母女孙三代由于不同的背景和经历，各人对家庭、责任、教育的见解截然有异，价值观亦千差万别。由于孙女要到中国当交换生，即是激起了三人的文化冲突。与此同时，她父亲的秘密被发现了，改变了家中所有人的生活。
