On an impulse to reconnect with her origins, 25 year old Freddie (an incredible performance by newcomer Ji-Min Park), returns to South Korea for the first time, where she was born before being adopted and raised in France. The headstrong young woman starts looking for her biological parents in a country she knows so little about, taking her life in new and unexpected directions.
A character drama with the twists and turns of a high-octane thriller, RETURN TO SEOUL unfolds as one of the rare movies that feels thoughtful and observant every minute. An exquisitely moving portrait of seeking identity.
