LOS ANGELES — In the film "Everything Everywhere All at Once," the character Evelyn Wang (played by Michelle Yeoh) is struggling to make a living as the owner and operator of a laundromat before she harnesses her powers from alternate universes to save her world and beyond.
In the opening scene of the critically acclaimed film, Wang sits in her apartment's dining room, organizing receipts for taxes and preparing food for her father.
Her environment illustrates her state of mind. On the wall behind her is a shelf cluttered with knickknacks and laundry bags. The table in front of her is filled with endless piles of paper.
