(dir. Celine Song, US, 2023, 106 m)

This event is part of the Woodstock Film Festival's Awards Season Screening Series.

Followed by a live virtual Q&A with director Celine Song via Zoom, hosted by Thelma Adams.


Nora and Hae Sung, two deeply connected childhood friends, are wrest apart after Nora's family emigrates from South Korea. Two decades later, they are reunited in New York for one fateful week as they confront notions of destiny, love, and the choices that make a life, in this heartrending modern romance.

A confident entry in the canon of great romances—one that expands the emotional scope of what a love story can be.
— Shirley Li, The Atlantic
The performances are impossibly strong and awards-season ready. Anything other than a best actress Oscar nomination for Lee will be criminal.

Celine Song's play Endlings received its world premiere in 2019 at American Repertory Theater and had its New York premiere in 2020 at New York Theatre Workshop. She has been a finalist for the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize and a semifinalist for the American Playwriting Foundation's Relentless Award. Celine also wrote on the first season of Amazon's “Wheel of Time."
