Becoming Kim

Thirteen years after engraving “Kimchi & Potato” into their wedding rings, filmmaker Susanne Kim turns the camera on her own marriage. When her husband Jeong Rae returns to South Korea to pursue a long-held dream, Susanne remains in Leipzig with their daughter, forcing the family to navigate life across continents. Blending intimate observations with carefully staged self-portraits, Becoming Kim is a candid, humorous and deeply reflective exploration of love, cultural identity and the invisible expectations that shape contemporary relationships. As personal doubts intersect with inherited ideas of gender, family and belonging, Kim asks whether love alone is enough to bridge the distances between two lives.
