After hearing that Park Jeong-min won Best Actor for this film, it became hard to pass up. The plot is straightforward yet engaging, following a son uncovering the “ugly” truth behind his mother’s disappearance 40 years ago through a series of interviews.
The ending feels unsettling and somewhat disappointing, raising questions about the overall moral of the film. While the protagonist lacks many redeemable qualities, Park Jeong-min’s raw and emotional performance completely captures attention and stands out as the film’s strongest aspect.
