Long-lasting (adj.): A deep, bone-aching perpetuity. Or word play on ¿ (the Chinese word for "dragon"), the creatures that have a larger foothold on our realities than we'd let on.

It seeks to confront the metaphorical dragons in our family, from war to racism to cultural practices and stereotypes, including ideas of femininity and filial piety, to understand how they've shaped us into who we are today.
