Synopsis
The director In-soo visits Busan for casting. The actress' request for script revision extends his stay in Busan. Dong-yeon, whose disease is gradually taking his eyesight away, wanders about every corner of Busan looking for his daughter Hye-ryeon, with vanishing sight and her photo in hand.
Hye-ryun was on a motorbike journey to erase her past when In-soo encounters and gets close to her. Accompanying her on the journey, In-soo revises his script with Hye-ryun as the leading character. Dong-yeon' s daughter-searching journey and Hye-ryun' s past-erasing journey get woven into In-soo' s script.
Director's Note
In-soo is a man with guilt about having abandoned his family to pursue his own dream. This film depicts his past, present and future through the portraits of three people in the same city, Busan at the same time. By jumbling reality and fiction through In-soo’s film and scenario, it intends to show how In-soo seeks for the self and tries to change his future.
