An intimate portrait of an elderly couple nearing the end of life, MY LOVE, DON'T CROSS THAT RIVER is as delicate as it is raw. Observing this fragile couple in their South Korean home, director Mo-Young Jin's camera acts as a fly-on-the-wall, capturing a deep love painted through simple acts of affection-from a good-natured leaf fight to a gentle caress of the cheek. No filmmaking tricks are necessary, as the honest and tender feelings emoted by this husband and wife are all that's needed to tell this story of true love.
