Having escaped from North Korea to the affluent South, Yujin Han has worked her way up as the CEO of her matchmaking agency Love Story which sets up new female arrivals from over the border with South Korean men. Using her marriage as a key selling point for her business, Yujin acts as counsellor, friend and even surrogate family-in-law to her matched couples. However, behind the scenes of her business, Yujin’s family life strains under the pressure of work, gradually forcing her to confront some major life choices of her own.
Shot over five years, with remarkable access and evocative archival footage, North South Man Woman presents a frank, multi-layered and frequently humorous perspective on the battle of the sexes, which resonates against the wider canvas of estranged twin nations.

Alan is the British founding father of cryonics — freezing the dead with the hope of reviving them in the future. When his wife dies, he honours their promise by preserving her, dreaming of one day reuniting. Years later, he meets someone new— but when she rejects cryonics, Alan must confront what truly matters most.
