SYNOPSIS
After a long time of no contact, two middle-school friends meet again.
One has become a secretary at a large enterprise and one has been fired after working as an irregular worker.
They become reminiscent about their past and have fun.
During their adolescence, they had the same dream which was to become an actress.
Although they have fun when they recall their past, they become at odds with each other when they return to the present.
A wall made by society stands between them.
Where did their friendship go?
DIRECTING INTENTION
After all there is only one thing that human beings can share together: dreams.
Even though their values and the circumstances of their lives are completely different,
they can become one if they return to their childhood dreams.
In the midst of this harsh, inhumane time of economic crisis and ideological conflict,
I would like to make a film that can bring us together to embrace each other and the roots of hope.
