House of the Seasons(HKAFF2024)
What makes familial bonding so tenacious is not only the blood, the food and the roof that we share, but the memories, and more so when life gets rough, the trauma. Seong-jin, the eldest grandson of the Kim’s family, returns to home in rural Daegu for Jesa, a Korean ceremony to honour ancestors. The accumulated tension reaches the edge of explosion when he declares that he would not inherit the tofu-making family business…Oscillating between comfort and unease as the season shifts, Oh Jungmins genre-binding debut feature depicts a mysterious crossgeneration story.
