Josh is a struggling filmmaker and ex-seminarian living in LA’s Koreatown. All is well relatively speaking- until one night, his deeply religious wife Irene tells him that God is calling her to quit her job. Starring Jun Kim (“West 32nd”, “Late Autumn”) and Jennifer Soo (“For Izzy”), edited by Oscar-nominated director Daniel Raim (“Harold and Lillian: A Hollywood Love Story”), and produced by acclaimed filmmaker Lee Isaac Chung (“Munyurangabo”), “Master of Divinity” is an incisive contemporary comedy about the complicated nature of religious beliefs and human relationship. Written and directed by Eugene Suen in his directorial debut.
