“... and it’s one of those films that stays with you long after you’ve seen it.” Two of the many moments like this for me were when Nora’s mom (Ji Hye Yoon) says to Hae Sung's mom (Min Young Ahn) “When you leave things behind, there’s an opportunity to gain something” and when the film talks about “crossings” and how they take something away from you.

Didn’t realize this was loosely based on Celine Song’s own story. Very cool. I saw this film this week in Japantown in San Francisco and debated writing a review. Still pondering it. This is good context for some of the background source material. I really loved the trailer. That was a cinematic experience in and of itself. I wrote about Asian film in one of my posts for BEVP. Thanks for sharing
