Program Note

Poorly educated, mid-50s ex-convict Kim Chunbae has a hard time getting a job. He’s willing to do anything for his disabled son Minjun, but it’s a tough world for guys like him. This is a film that challenges a society the judges us based on documents first and frowns upon single parent families, as numbing as it is infuriating. (MOON Woong)
