A long-lost postcard shatters the fragile peace of three adult siblings, each carrying the unseen scars of a mother who abandoned them years ago. This poignant Korean film follows their reluctant but necessary road trip to confront the past and each other. As they journey through breathtaking landscapes, old wounds reopen and secrets surface—including one brother's struggle to come out as gay, another's battle with a neurological disorder, and a sister's life as a deaf individual navigating a hearing world. 'Family Affair' is a tender, slow-burning exploration of forgiveness, identity, and the bonds that survive even the deepest betrayals. With a cast that delivers raw, nuanced performances, this drama doesn't shy away from the messy, uncomfortable conversations that real families have. It's a heartfelt reminder that understanding often requires a long, winding journey—both physical and emotional.
