Synopsis

Two cars are seen smashed on a quiet road where cars are unlikely to travel.

"Sung-hoon" lost his wife and daughter in the accident, but "Tae-soo" has no problem.
Can two people in different positions understand each other and move forward?

Director's Note

I wanted to express our anxiety about living in a faded truth.
