Description:
In 2003, philosophy professor Song Du-yul returns to Korea after 37 years in Germany. Within a week of crossing the border, his reputation shifts from respected international figure to that of a notorious communist spy, leading to his arrest and a five-year trial. The event deeply divides Korean society, creating conflict between conservative and progressive parties. The film calmly details this extended period, depicting a society with detached observation. Through a series of unusual details, it gradually reveals uncomfortable truths that challenge viewers. It’s a film that feels like an intimate look inward, prompting reflection on things we might prefer to forget.
