Umma: Plot and Cast!
March is shaping up to be the first jam-packed month of the 2022 film season. Although everyone’s attention is focused on a particular bat-centric blockbuster, there is also a slew of lesser films to look forward to this month. Umma is one of them.
The official synopsis of the film is as below:
“A woman and her daughter live a quiet life on an American farm, but when the remains of her estranged mother arrive from Korea, she becomes haunted by the fear of turning into her own mother.”
Oh’s Amanda looks to be a single mother raising her kid (Fivel Stewart) on a farm in America in the trailer. Amanda’s life is turned upside down when a man sends the ashes of her dead mother to her in a box from Korea, and a mysterious presence starts to stalk her family. “Some Koreans believe that life’s hardships are caused by the tormented spirits of their ancestors,” Amanda tells Atypical actor Stewart, which might explain the film’s terrible occurrences.
The main cast of this film consists of Sandra Oh (hugely famous for the popular tv series Killing Eve, Invincible, American crime, etc.), Odeya Rush (Goosebumps, Almost Friends), Dermot Mulroney (Along for the ride), Fivel Stewart (The never list), Tom Yi, etc.
Iris K. Shim, who is of Korean origin, wrote and directed Umma, her first feature film in both roles. She previously worked on Jackie Chain’s The Foreigner and directed the documentary The House of Suh.
