Director Seong Ji-hye's Feature Film Debut, Teaser Poster and Trailer Released
The movie Between the Two of Us, which portrays the delicate social issue of pregnancy and childbirth in women with disabilities with a sincere perspective, has confirmed its theatrical release in July. The film has been generating anticipation among audiences with the release of teaser posters and trailers.
Directed by Seong Ji-hye, Between the Two of Us (English title: *Between the two of us*) is a social growth drama that follows the 34-week journey of a wheelchair-bound woman named 'Eun-jin' who unexpectedly becomes pregnant. The film delicately explores the themes of pregnancy in disabled women and their relationships with family and society, presenting them in a profound and warm manner. The movie was first introduced at the Jeonju International Film Festival and the Value Bom Film Festival last year, receiving deep empathy from audiences.
The lead role of 'Eun-jin' is played by Kim Si-eun, known for her impressive performances in movies like Light and Iron, while the role of 'Ho-seon' is portrayed by Seo Seung-hoi. Additionally, actors Oh Ji-ho and Kang Mal-geum contribute to the depth of the drama with their warm supporting roles.
The teaser poster captures the complex emotions of expectant parents looking at an ultrasound image with sensitivity. The phrase "Thump, an unknown existence has arrived" goes beyond a simple event, hinting at the inner struggles of the characters facing the beginning of a new life, leaving a deep impression. The trailer starts with a narration by 'Eun-jin,' who has acquired an acquired disability, and 'Ho-seon,' who protects her, quietly unraveling the trust, growth, and realistic concerns surrounding childbirth between the two.
Director Seong Ji-hye expressed, "I wanted to portray the themes of disability, women, and family in a universal emotional context," adding, "I hope everyone receives support on their journey to find their own path." The film sparks discourse on topics such as the rights of people with disabilities and women, reproductive rights, and delivers a message that deeply reflects on relationships, existence, and societal perspectives.
With a runtime of 99 minutes, Between the Two of Us is currently under review for classification and is scheduled for nationwide release in theaters in July. Anticipation is high for this summer's most sincere film that will offer warm comfort and empathy to both people with and without disabilities.
