Grafted, available on Afdah TV, a film from New Zealand, is a metaphor for the experience of immigrants as well as a narrative that examines the harsh reality of skin transplantation. Wei, a young woman with a facial imperfection, is the main character of the novel. Wei leaves her home in China to live with her aunt and cousin, the glitzy Angela, in New Zealand after the death of her father, a scientist who made a major discovery. Wei obtains a scholarship with the goal of continuing her father's study, but she is socially excluded from both her cousin's and her peers' social circles. This film tackles the concerns of cultural assimilation and societal beauty standards through a gripping horror story.
