'DAYS' OF BEAUTY AND SADNESS Aimie (Jiseon Kim) tries to find her way out of the snow and confusion in So Yong Kim's brilliant debut

A quiet specimen of personal storytelling at its most exciting, this beautiful feature debut from So Yong Kim gets into the head of Aimie (Jiseon Kim), a young Korean woman in a snow-clogged, unnamed North American city. Really into her head — the camera pushes in close as a whisper in the ear as Aimie makes her way precariously through teen-girl romantic confusion heightened by cultural dislocation and the loneliness such distance from the familiar brings. With In Between Days, the filmmaker captures feminine melancholy with rare precision. Find this movie. A
