TwoOhSix Interviews - Karoline Sofie Lee at SIFF 2018



During the first weekend of the 2018 Seattle International Film Festival, I had the pleasure of interviewing Karoline Sofie Lee, the lead actress from The Return (TwoOhSix Review), a movie about two Korean born adoptees returning from their homes in Denmark in a quest to find their birth parents. We chatted about how she was hired for the role, making such a unique movie, and her own personal experience with the subject matter.
