Equal parts touching and earth-shattering, director Jin Moyoung’s documentary portrait of the 76-year companionship of “100-year-old lovebirds” Jo Byeong-man and Kang Kye-yeol—which became an unexpected blockbuster in South Korea and remains one of the country’s most successful films—observes, across 15 months, the tender moments of the couple’s twilight days around their rural riverside home and as they gradually confront the inevitable reality of their impending separation. An indelible narrative of enduring love spanning generations and cultures, My Love, Don’t Cross That River effortlessly captures the weight of this extraordinary relationship and invites us to consider the forms and passages love takes across time and life itself.
“A charming and heart-wrenching documentary on marriage, commitment, and the inevitable pain on the other side of extraordinary love.” —Lulu Wang
