Celine Song | English and Korean with English subtitles | Greta Lee, Teo Yoo, John Magaro
Nora and Hae Sung, two deeply connected childhood friends, are wrest apart after Nora’s family emigrates from South Korea. Twelve years later, Nora, now a playwriting student in New York, reconnects with Hae Sung online; they begin talking frequently, and even imagine a reunion. But another dozen years pass before they finally meet over a few fateful days in New York. An aching, deeply romantic debut feature from playwright Celine Song, with spellbinding performances from the three leads, this is a love story told across three moments in time, exploring the Korean notion of ‘In Yun’, how our fate is driven by our connections in previous incarnations.
