GENESIS

It is a running joke on the Internet about finding a sugar daddy. There is a mixed sense of being intrigued as well as judgement (from a distance) on the world of trading your companionship for cold hard cash.

This documentary explores the story of H, a single mom with a special needs infant on how her circumstances had lead her into the world of sugaring and how she navigated the murky, unregulated industry of financially compensated companionship. The primary focus was to keep the subject's identity private but also keep the story visually engaging.

Titled Eat “Pei” Love, 陪 means accompany in Mandarin, which is aptly sandwiched between putting food on the table, and finding love.
