🏆 “Isle Child” conquista o prêmio de Melhor Filme da Mostra Competitiva de Longas-metragens do 4th Korean Film Festival - KOFF Brazil 2026!

Escolhido por meio de voto popular, o longa-metragem conquistou o público brasileiro com uma história sensível sobre identidade, pertencimento e os laços que nos conectam às nossas origens.

Parabéns ao diretor Thomas Percy Kim (@thomas.pk) e a toda a equipe do filme por essa conquista! 🎬

Em "Isle Child", Si Miller (Ethan Hwang @ethantk23) leva uma vida tranquila em Concord, Massachusetts, cercado pelo apoio de seus pais adotivos e pela amizade de seus companheiros de time de beisebol. Essa realidade muda quando ele recebe a notícia de que sua mãe biológica, sul-coreana, está gravemente doente, despertando questionamentos sobre suas origens e sua identidade.

Entre as questões da adoção, os vínculos familiares e a busca por suas raízes, o filme constrói uma reflexão sobre identidade, memória e a complexidade de compreender de onde viemos e a que lugar pertencemos.
