Staff Waltz for the Shore
Haerim visits her grandmother’s coastal home dreaming of the sea, only to find the beach of her childhood paved over and inaccessible. Her inability to reach the water mirrors her own profound sense of displacement. An awkward reunion with her grandmother and aunt, the sweet yet alienating taste of canned peaches, a suddenly overturned umbrella - these scattered fragments make up her (un)ordinary journey. Through this empty summer, the film questions the very meaning of place and belonging.
