Hoan makes a living as a sidewalk barber while single-handedly caring for his mother, who suffers from Alzheimer’s disease. As her condition worsens and Hoan himself begins to show early signs of memory loss, he decides to take his mother to South Korea to search for his long-lost brother. This journey forces them to confront forgotten memories, past fractures, and questions that were left unanswered. Through a mother and son’s poignant voyage, Leaving Mom profoundly explores memory, loss, and the unbreakable familial bonds that transcend both time and space.
