SYNOPSIS
Mom was parted from father by death when she was 42 years old. After that she has brought up a brother and sister sixsome, and her devotion for the children served as a model for others. Mom got a boy friend recently, and a brother and sister sixsome have a different opinion about that. I planned to make a film about mom's love story at first, but as time goes on I have regarded her as a women not just mom. I have gradually concerned about discrimination and violence that mom and my sisters including myself have had to accept naturally only because we are the feminie gender. This film is finally completed with the mom's story as well as daughters' who have courage from mom's existence itself.
DIRECTING INTENTION
I became a mom in 2001. I have gotten a guilty feeling since I have not pay any attention to my children because of my own carrier, and now I strongly believe that children can be happy when mom is happy. At the very moment mom came to my mind. She was not an ordinary mom and I did not like her that much. And one day I saw mom in myself. I want to make my daughter understand my situation, so that I decide to try to understand mom in the first place. This film is for my near future.
