Synopsis
The once-busy 'rendezvous house' for unconverted long-term prisoners is now resided by two prisoners in their 80s. I meet Hee-Sung Park, one of the remaining prisoners from North Korea, whose aspiration was to become a cinematographer. As I give him a video camera and teach him how to film, he begins to film the moments he wants to cherish, and I record the stories of the unconverted long-term prisoners.
