A single Korean mother and her adolescent son living as immigrants in Canada during the 90s.
So-Young is a Korean single mother raising her adolescent son Dong-Hyun in the suburbs of Canada during the 90s. Determined to provide a better life for him than the one she left behind in her native country, she does her best to overcome the constant racial and cultural challenges that confront them.
As Dong-Hyun gets older, he becomes increasingly curious about his Korean heritage and in particular, about his deceased father - a topic that So-Young refuses to address. Instead, she is set on continuing to build on her new life which now includes a relationship with a kind Korean-Canadian man who is eager to take on the role of Dong-Hyun’s surrogate father. This only exacerbates the tense relationship between her and Dong-Hyun. Then, sudden devastating news prompts the mother and son to return to South Korea for the first time since their initial departure with hopes of reconnecting to their roots and reconciling their tragic past. - Krátké a kreslené filmy
There are great movies and then there are some movies that even transcend that category. This is one of those movies. Amazing movie, and kudos to the team that made this! Will be recommending it to every person I know (immigrant or not). 🙏🙏
Watched it with my gf and wow what a relatable and touching story, the way she reacted to the story really cemented how I feel about her too. Great experience all around.
I’d love to see this movie. It looks like a very powerful story. Too often the father is missing in so many families.
Is it based on a book or something? there's already a band called Riceboy sleeps featuring Jonsi of Sigur Ros.
