Synopsis
À Sokcho, petite ville balnéaire de Corée du Sud, Soo-Ha, 23 ans, mène une vie routinière, entre ses visites à sa mère, marchande de poissons, et sa relation avec son petit ami, Jun-oh. L’arrivée d’un Français, Yan Kerrand, dans la petite pension, dans laquelle Soo-Ha travaille. Cela réveille en elle des questions sur sa propre identité et sur son père français dont elle ne sait presque rien. Tandis que l’hiver engourdit la ville, Soo-Ha et Yan Kerrand vont s’observer, se jauger, tenter de communiquer avec leurs propres moyens (la cuisine pour l’une, le dessin pour l’autre), et tisser un lien fragile.
In Sokcho, a small seaside village in South Korea, Soo-Ha, 25, lives in a bit of a rut, rhythmed by visits to her mother, a fishmonger, and her relationship with her boyfriend, Jun-Ho. When a French man named Yan Kerrand arrives in the boarding house where Soo-Ha works, it awakens within her questions about her own identity, and that of her French father, of whom she knows almost nothing. As winter settles over the town, Soo-Ha and Kerrand will observe and gauge each other, trying to communicate any way they can – through cooking for one and drawing for the other – delicately weaving a fragile bond between them.
