, In 1987, Mina Lee flies from Seoul to Los Angeles to start a new life.
,
, Thirty years later, Margot Lee speaks to her mother for the last time.

,
, These are stories waiting to be told, before it's too late.
,
, Reminiscent of Celeste Ng's page-turning meditations on identity, this searing mother-daughter story explores the diverse and unsettling realities of being an immigrant in America.
