Mama Boy (2022)

“Mama Boy” Xiao Hong is a shy 29-year-old fish store worker who lets his overprotective mother Mei Ling call the shots on everything in his life. While the overbearing matriarch has been a staple in Asian-American cinema of recent years, Chen frames Xiao Hong’s willingness to be in Mei Ling’s bubble as a case of arrested development rather than a cultural trait.
