March 7 @ 8:00 PM – 10:00 PM
An absorbing and emotional film about adoption, loneliness, a search for identity and the meaning of existence. A 25 year-old French woman returns to Korea, where she was born before being adopted by a French couple, to try to track down her biological parents. During the search, set over an 8 year period, she meets her birth father, moves to Korea, emotionally misuses those who want to get close and begins to discover some aspects of her birth mother, which lead her to question where some of her own cruel behaviours come from. The film explores what makes us who we are, how much is upbringing, how much is genetic? It is sad and yet gripping storytelling.
