              K-Number

              Seyoung Jo / Republic of Korea (South Korea) / 2024 / International Premiere / 112 min

              + Talk: Reclaiming your truth

              Imagine being adopted under false expectations. Your entire life story—that your biological parents abandoned you and you were found in front of an orphanage—turns out to be a lie. A Korean investigation from 2023 reveals that thousands of adoptions since the 1970s were conducted on falsified grounds, including to Denmark, where 332 cases have been registered. This panel presents three individuals who have experienced or been close to someone who had to change their life story. What is left when you find out your existence is based on a lie, and how does it affect a person’s perception of their identity? Participants include Sun Hee Engelstoft featured in K-number and filmmaker for "Forget Me Not", Stine Moon Joo Pitney—board member of the Adoptionspolitisk Forum and Mino Denmark, and photographer Martin Ford. The talk is moderated by journalist Rikke Huan Clemmesen from the podcast "Dragebørn".
              Language: Danish

              A Korean adoptee seeks answers about her biological origins, but ends up unravelling the shadowy side of international adoption. An existential detective film with red threads to Denmark.
