Program Note
The pollock drying site where Yeong-hwa works and the apartment construction site where his son Seok-hun works are bustling. As the protagonist learns of the disappearance of Jin-chul, the son of her colleague Ok-soon, she becomes increasingly suspicious of her son Seok-hun the more she tries to help Ok-soon. Featuring strong actors like Kang Aesim, Byun Junghee, and Kim Beomsu, the film showcases stylish cinematography with intense close-ups and characters’ backs, demonstrating a refined sense of what to reveal and what to withhold. It’s a movie with a striking final blow! (HYUNG Seulwoo)
