In Seoul in 1994, 14-year-old Eun-Hee sits quietly in the background of her dysfunctional family. She has a close best friend and a secret boyfriend, yet still somehow feels like an outsider. Until she meets her new, free-spirited Chinese tutor, who seems truly to see her. Kim Bora’s semi-autobiographical directorial debut is a grand, beautiful introspective story of a summer when everything changes.
