Good People
On Thursday, the 16th May at 6pm, WFS will be screening the award-winning and moving film, Riceboy Sleeps.
Our 8pm screening will be a behind-the-scenes doco on the greatest racing driver of his time, Sir Jackie Stewart.
RICEBOY SLEEPS
Canada, 2022, Comedy/Drama, Rated M, English subtitles, 109 mins
Cast: Choi Seung-yoon, Ethan Hwang, Hunter Dillon.
Director: Anthony Shim.
A heart-warming story set in the 1990s of So-Young, a Korean single mother who is raising her son Dong-Hyun in the suburbs of Canada to provide a better life for him than the one she left behind in her native country.
As Dong-Hyun gets older, he becomes more curious about his Korean heritage and, in particular, about his dead father, something So-Young refuses to discuss.
To make matters worse, Dong-Hyun learns his mother is now in a relationship with a Korean-Canadian man who is keen to be Dong-Hyun’s surrogate father.
(Writer/Director) Anthony Shim is a ferociously talented storyteller.
