Synopsis

Crushed under the weight of life is a woman with three naughty kids and a workaholic husband. One day, she sees on TV an eerie phenomenon where people everywhere are disappearing without reason. As terrified viewers watch, their bodies turn into light and just evaporate! The entire world in panic, she attempts to escape with her children. But she, too, becomes the firsthand witness of the ghastly event happening right in front of her. This philosophical sci-fi apocalypse recalls Ghost in the Shell, addressing psyche free from the bondage of body. (CHOI Eun young)
