Curiosidades
The movie is based on the life of Laure Badufle, a friend of director Davy Chou. Like Freddie, she was born in South Korea, stayed a year there before being adopted in France. At age 23, she came back and lived for two years there before returning to France. A few years after that, Chou accompanied her to South Korea, when they met her biological father and grandmother. According to him, the meeting was full of emotions, of regret and bad communication, with the translator struggling to convey Badufle's anger into polite Korean.

Citações
Tena: [to Freddie] You are a sad person.

A Fresh Yet Flawed Exploration of Identity and Belonging

The film offers a fresh and nuanced perspective on the complexities of identity, home, and emotional upheaval. The central character's multi-year quest to return to her place of birth serves as an intense focal point for exploring the intricate emotions and challenges related to adoption and self-discovery. However, a minor drawback lies in the occasional reliance on clichés, which briefly detract from the otherwise innovative approach.

The narrative structure stands out for its inventiveness, seamlessly weaving multiple timelines in a way that enriches the emotional landscape. The fragmented narrative is both audacious and purposeful, reflecting the protagonist's evolving inner world.

Beyond visual appeal, the film's cinematography serves as a narrative tool, adding layers of meaning to characters and themes. The score acts as the emotional backbone, elevating key moments and offering another layer to the viewer's experience.

In summary, the film emerges as a deeply affecting and intellectually stimulating exploration of identity, adoption, and the pursuit of true belonging. With its compelling storytelling, captivating performances, and visually arresting cinematography, it provides not just entertainment but a profound cinematic experience.
