Nora and Hae Sung, close childhood friends in Seoul, see their bond broken when Nora’s family emigrated from South Korea to Canada. After two decades of separation and sporadic meet-ups, they’re reunited in New York as adults (Greta Lee and Teo Yoo) for one fateful week, together confronting questions about destiny, love, fate, regret, and the irrevocable choices that shape a life in playwright Song’s tender, intimate feature debut. “Song draws you into her characters’ worlds seamlessly… In a sense it’s a time-travel movie, because even as the two characters keep moving forward, they remain inexorably tethered to the past, which means it’s also a story about everyday life.”—Manohla Dargis, The New York Times
