This superb debut feature by Korean-American director So Yong Kim seems to be constructed entirely of the ineffable and intangible, those fleeting moments that most movies treat as throwaways.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
This artfully muted film pays off with a desperate act of eloquence.
Kim keeps dialogue to a minimum and provides the barest of story arcs, using a handheld camera to probe subtle shifts of emotion in her nonprofessional actors.
A quiet specimen of personal storytelling at its most exciting.
In Between Days plays like a teen movie with all the narration removed.
