SYNOPSIS: Writer-director Celine Song's sensitive and beautiful ode to love, regret and missed opportunities goes on general release at Cineworld on September 8th and isn't to be missed.
The movie centres on Nora and Hae Sung whose idyllic pre-teen friendship in South Korea is shattered when the former's family emigrates to America. They're reunited as adults decades later in New York when they come to terms with what might have been. They are reunited for one fateful week as they confront notions of love and destiny.
Nora (played as an adult by Greta Lee) is now married to the loving Arthur (John Magaro) while the grown-up Hae Sung (Teo Yoo) is compelled to watch from the sidelines at the childhood love who slipped through his fingers.
The attentive performances and the atmosphere of quiet longing conjured by Song's sensitive direction have left critics enraptured.
