Tolk by Maja Lee Langvad
A Korean adoptee from Denmark travels repeatedly to South Korea over several years to meet her Korean family. She cannot speak Korean and the family cannot speak English, so she relies on a Danish-Korean interpreter who accompanies her. When the family discovers that the interpreter is also her girlfriend, tensions arise as she confronts questions of language, love, queerness, and belonging while seeking to recover family, culture, and her own voice.
