Halmeoni | A Short Film About Forgetting Your Language
My 할머니 passed away over the summer, five days before what was to be her 93rd birthday.
I was in the same country as her for the first time in 27 years.
I missed seeing her by two days.
I can only hope that knowing we were in Korea making our way to her, that we would see each other again, and that she would meet her great grand-daughter, brought her happiness as she drifted to sleep that final night.
