“잘 먹겠습니다! (I Will Enjoy This Food!)” is a short film about everything you’re not supposed to talk about, much less consider, as a Korean-American woman. Minji is a queer Korean-American woman, and Helme is her Korean American grandmother. Together, the two make dinner, communicating in the love language they have always shared and know best: cooking and eating. Over the course of Minji’s favorite meal, we learn about bridging the gap between two generations through Minji’s intersecting identities: feminism, sexuality, repression, religion, and wonderful food.
