The documentary film shares the story of Kim DeBord, a Korean American adoptee artist, who reclaims the landscape of the American West as her own despite facing discrimination and violence. By connecting herself to history and community, Kim stitches together a new landscape for herself and others.

위 단편 다큐멘터리 영화는 어린 시절 미국으로 입양된 한국계 여성이 자신을 거부한다고 느꼈던 미국 서부의 풍광을 어떻게 자신의 장소로 만드는지를 다룬다. 역사와 커뮤니티와 연결되어 새로운 정체성을 획득한 주인공은 자신과 모두를 담아낼 새로운 땅을 손바느질로 엮는다.
