Review

Eunja, stuck in her monotonous daily life, becomes curious about Palbok, a man who suddenly appears in a small rural village. Her life gains new energy after meeting him, and she ends up helping him with a burglary, joining him on a journey with no clear destination. The early dawn in Palbok's van feels different than usual, and Eunja begins to rediscover herself, long forgotten. The subject of burglary, along with the characters' provocative and unusual relationship, generates subtle tension that makes the story intriguing. The performances of the two masterful actors drive the narrative, blending seamlessly with the skillful direction. The journey of the two moves through beautiful and warm scenery, reflecting the director's affection for the characters. (LEE Haneul | CEO, Noname Cinema Cooperative)
