Winter in Sokcho
Directed by Koya Kamura
Produced by Offshore, Keystone Films
A contemplative, visually poetic study of a young woman's quiet awakening through an unexpected encounter with a stranger, set against a wintry Korean coastal landscape.
In the snowy seaside town of Sokcho, 25-year-old Soo-Ha works at a guesthouse. She drifts between her mother’s fish stall and her boyfriend until a French artist’s arrival stirs questions about her identity. As winter deepens, Soo-Ha and the artist form an unspoken connection through food and art.
