Seven years after Moving On at 16th HKAFF, her acclaimed debut and winner of the New Talent Award, Yoon Dan-bi returns with a tender coming-of-age story set on a remote Korean island. Seventeen-year-old Jin has never known another world. When childhood friend Dujae returns for his grandmother's funeral, she begins finding small reasons to see him. What starts as the ease of childhood gradually gives way to first love. With rare sensitivity to adolescence, Yoon captures how a first flicker of affection ripples outward, gathering into a wave of feeling that sweeps everything else away. First love, first heartbreak, first glimpse of the world beyond.
