For five years, Lin has quietly built a life around love and loss. After the tragic death of his boyfriend, Li Wei, Lin chooses to honor his memory by becoming the sole caretaker of Li Wei's aging mother, Mrs. Chou, and his young son, Yo Yu. This makeshift family finds fragile happiness in their shared grief—until a crisis forces them into an impossible legal battle. When a social worker questions Lin's right to keep the family together, long-buried secrets, societal prejudice, and the aching question of what truly makes a parent come to a head. More than a romance, *Dear Tenant* is a poignant, award-winning mystery that unspools through flashbacks and courtroom drama, exploring how love can persist across life, death, and identity itself. Prepare for a masterful Taiwanese film that is as much a tearjerker as it is a powerful statement on queer resilience and the many forms a family can take.
