Genre: Romance / Seánra: Rómáns Taking typical romantic tropes of chance, circumstance and long-felt unspoken feelings, Canadian director Celine Song achieved critical acclaim with this poignant debut, centred on&nbsp;two young Koreans whose lives intertwine across time and continents. When Nora’s family emigrate from Seoul to New York, the friendship with Hae Sung is curtailed, until they reconnect again some years later, through Facebook and Skype calls. Now married, Nora is happy to renew the friendship, until Hae Sung’s visit to New York brings everything to a head, forcing the characters to confront the choices they have made. A beautiful study of roads not taken and missed opportunities, when romantic ideals conflict with reality.&nbsp;&nbsp; Agus leas á bhaint aici as gnáth-thróip rómánsúla - seans, cúinsí agus mothúcháin sheanbhunaithe folaithe, bhain an stiúrthóir Ceanadach Celine Song ardmholadh amach ó na léirmheastóirí leis an gcéad scannán tochtmhar seo, atá bunaithe ar bheirt Chóiréach óg a bhfuil a saolta fite fuaite ina chéile thar am agus in ilchríocha éagsúla. Nuair a théann teaghlach Nora ar imirce ó Shúl go Nua-Eabhrac, cuirtear srian ar an gcairdeas le Hae Sung, go dtí go ndéanann siad teagmháil le chéile arís roinnt blianta ina dhiaidh sin, trí Facebook agus glaonna Skype. Agus í pósta anois, tá áthas ar Nora an cairdeas a thosú arís, go dtí go gcuireann cuairt Hae Sung ar Nua-Eabhrac cúrsaí go cnámh na huillinne, rud a chuireann iallach ar na carachtair aghaidh a thabhairt ar na roghanna atá déanta acu. Staidéar álainn ar bhóithre nár siúladh agus deiseanna nár tapaíodh, nuair a thagann idéil rómánsúla salach ar an bhfíorshaol.&nbsp;&nbsp;Irish translation of film description.
