First-time director Celine Song charms her way through a tale of modern, long-distance romance
to tell us about love? Boy meets girl, boy breaks girl’s heart, boy makes up with girl: variations of this tried-and-tried cycle have been deluding and distracting us for decades. At first glance,Sundance this year, appears to rock no romantic boats. It opens with a girl and two boys at a counter, as a couple attempts to delineate their relationship; how these people could have ended up at this bar, at this time, in this combination.
The film, at once strikingly intimate and lived-in, has all the hallmarks of a creator who has been thinking about these themes and perhaps experiencing some of them for herself for decades. Writer-director Celine Song was indeed born in South Korea; her family moved to Canada when she was 12, and she later studied for her MFA at Columbia. Her debut play,, about three Korean woman and a Korean-Canadian writer, opened on off-Broadway in March 2020. You know what happened to the world after that.
