You for Me for You, written by Korean American playwright Mia Chung, tells the story of two North Korean sisters - Yuna and Minjee. Facing starvation at the hands of the North Korean regime, they make a bargain with a smuggler to flee to the United States. When one sister is denied passage because she is too weak to make the treacherous trans-Pacific crossing, the other sister vows to race across time and space and return to save Minjee. However, the free world is not without its challenges.
