About Broker

A bittersweet blend of crime and family drama from the director of the Oscar nominated Shoplifters.

The owners of a Korean laundrette run an illegal business selling abandoned babies to wealthy couples who don't want to wait to adopt. When a young mother discovers their racket, she decides to join them to ensure her child finds a good home.

There are suspenseful and sometimes humorous twists and turns as they evade the police and criminal gangs, but like the directors best work, at its heart this is a touching story of a family linked by circumstance and belonging as much as blood.
