Award-winning South Korean drama, about ‘baby boxes’—safe places for unwanted children to be dropped off and cared for by others.
On a rainy night in Busan, So-Young (Lee Ji-eun) leaves her baby Woo-sung outside a ‘baby box’, a safe place set up in Korean for new mothers to leave unwanted infants. Instead, he’s picked up by Sang-hyun (Parasite’s Song Kang-ho) who runs an official adoption brokerage and plans to find him a new home. As they search for Woo-sung's new family, the unlikely team evolves into something of a family themselves—unaware they’re being trailed by two detectives who are determined to stop them.
Please note: Some screenings will be followed by a pre-recorded Q&A with director Hirokazu Kore-eda, who won the Palme d’Or for Shoplifters in 2018.
