The Space Between You & Me is a documentary exploring Lily Ahree Siegel’s international adoption from South Korea to Alabama, juxtaposed with experiences from Lily’s birth mother Myungsoon and Korean-American adoptee Emily.
Client — Lily Ahree Siegel
The reasons for adoption are often complex, sad, and bittersweet. Through sharing Korean culture, making kimchi, or getting a tattoo, Emily and Lily have different ways to reclaim their lost identity. But can they ever find belonging between these two worlds?
The documentary is available to view on PBS (US only).
Conversations with Lily highlighted the internet’s formative role piecing together her transracial identity — paralleled by the Skype calls reconnecting with her birth mother.
