Be the first to see the powerful new Canadian-Korean drama at our Club Dendy Preview Screening – exclusive to Club members and their guests. Winner of the prestigious Platform Jury Award at the Toronto International Film Festival, Best Screenplay at 16th Asia Pacific Screen Awards and Best Canadian Film at the Vancouver International Film Festival, this emotionally impactful portrait of familial love is not to be missed.

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.
