After his father disappears and the rest of his family is sent to a notorious political prison camp in North Korea, a young boy must learn to survive the harsh conditions, find meaning in his perilous existence, and maybe even escape.

“A very bold approach to expose the crisis of humanity that (unfortunately) is a part of our reality right now. The story was very neat (with some surprises here and there) and the visuals of this film are very unique and beautifully crafted. Itu0026#39;s not that explicit in terms of imagery, but can definitely nudge your sense of morality. It deserves more attention and hopefully can bring about more action to this issue.”
