In the sun-drenched but precarious world of Louisiana’s bayous, Antonio LeBlanc Justin Chon fights to build a stable life for his pregnant wife Kathy Alicia Vikander and their beloved young daughter. A Korean adoptee raised in the American South since childhood, Antonio’s past resurfaces with terrifying force when a decades-old immigration oversight threatens to tear his family apart. As he grapples with this existential threat, Antonio must confront his own identity and the complex bonds of his chosen family, including his steadfast friend Ace Mark O’Brien. This poignant and urgent family drama, written and directed by Justin Chon, paints a deeply human portrait of love, belonging, and the fragile nature of home against a system that can render a life unrecognizable. With powerful performances at its core, the film navigates the turbulent waters of an impending crisis, asking what sacrifices a man will make to protect everything he holds dear.
