Korean writer and director So Yong Kim's heartbreaking story about two little girls abandonment by their mother first, then by their aunt as they cope with loss and waiting. A poignant and touching tale from the point of view of the youngsters who don't understand what's going on but are willing to bond with the adults regardless of the situation. Kim's does the right thing by letting the young performers tell the story without much intrusion or manipulation which makes the film more powerful without any sentimentality. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
