Germany, Korea | 2026 | Documentary | 94 MIN. | German, English, Korean
DIRECTOR | Susanne Kim
German filmmaker Susanne, married to a Korean man named Jeongrae Kim, turns the camera on her intercultural marriage and family with humor and tenderness. As she juggles the roles of wife, mother, and artist, she stages humorous and poetic performances—quiet acts of rebellion that give shape to her emotions and inner world. Blending vérité and performance, the film dives into the beautiful mess of love, identity, and cultural collision. At once deeply personal and universal, Becoming Kim asks: How do we stay true to ourselves—while learning to love another?
