Chinese film Little Big Woman takes the father’s funeral as the main line to tell the story of family affection and real-life emotional entanglements. In the narrative with multiple clues, we go back to find the hidden reasons, and the gradually clear reflection of the past is related to the real situation of the characters. Causal cycle narrative is not only a narrative strategy, but also a narrative logic with deep Chinese traditional cultural and philosophical connotations.
