出生于韩国的弗雷迪，自少便被领养家庭带到法国生活。25岁那年原本要去东京旅行，却因遇上台风而转游首尔，继而开展了一段寻根之旅。在法国成长的她，与亲生父母有着全然不同的文化，使这趟突如其来的旅程引发出更深层的身份思考，也将她的人生引领至始料未及的方向。

　　The story of La Maison revolves around 27-year-old Emma, a French woman who heads off to live in Berlin and decides to spend some time in a brothel so as to learn about and understand sex workers – women who are paid to be women and that alone, and who are set to form the focus of her new novel. In gonzo journalism style, Emma becomes one of them and ultimately remains with them for two years, despite only intending to stay for several weeks. Was writing her book simply a pretext for Emma to live out the type of fantasy that’s hard to admit to in our society? From one bedchamber to another and from one woman to the next, the film guides us through a “forbidden” world.
