The fierce young woman embarks on a journey of self-discovery that takes her from quiet villages to bustling nightclubs. In an elliptical narrative spanning eight years, Freddie’s life takes unexpected turns that challenge who she thought she was and who she could become.

After winning the Jury Award for his film Diamond Island in 2017, director Davy Chou now presents Return to Seoul, in which he skillfully avoids all sentimental pitfalls. By ingeniously playing with Freddie’s powerful, unpredictable character, he creates a cinematic masterpiece. Return to Seoul is a daring search for meaning and stability in the existential rollercoaster called life.
