## Description

German filmmaker Susanne, married to Jeong Rae Kim (a Korean man), turns her camera—with humor and tenderness—on her own intercultural marriage and family. While juggling the roles of wife, mother, and artist, she stages humorous and poetic performances—quiet acts of rebellion that give expression to her feelings and inner world. Through a blend of observation and staged moments, the film delves into the chaos of love, identity, and the clash of cultures.
