Quiet and emotionally reserved, Jonghan seeks out his late father’s old friend, a photography professor, and begins learning how to take pictures. Meanwhile, Siyeon, a former artist who abandoned her creative life, stumbles upon a gallery and confronts an idealized version of her past self. Wandering through ruins and a desolate city with his camera, Jonghan meets Minsu, a mysterious young man, and is forced to face his own pain.

A man arrives in Korea searching for traces of his late father. His languid journey leads him back to his parents—a bond neither severed nor fully intact. Structured in three chapters, the film weaves artistic motifs such as photographs, graffiti, and paintings throughout, creating intersections that reflect the man’s inner world. The director's ambition is evident in experimental techniques—such as embedding two entirely different narratives through a play-within-a-play, as well as the inventive use of inserts, split edits, and dissolves. Although the nonlinear progression may feel somewhat scattered, the emotional weight of scenes crafted with long takes creates a compelling, immersive experience. (Ho Jun Lee)
