Program Note
Aspiring actor Shota visits a nursing home near his hometown to teach acting classes. There he meets Takara, a young caregiver who has been working at the nursing home since leaving high school. One day, when Shota visits Takara at her house to ask her to come with him to a town festival, they become embroiled in an incident and end up fleeing the town together. Shota says, “God puts us through trials but always gives us a way out.” Shota and Takara have no choice except to run in search of a possible exit, but gradually they come to realize that they can save each other. Shota’s acting proves its worth. (CHOI Eun)
