Experiencing Interruptions?

Spinning wheel

Yeon-jung (42 years old/female), a competent potter, is raising her son Sun-woo (10 years old/male) with developmental disabilities alone. As usual, Yeon-jung receives an exhibition proposal while preparing for Sun-woo's school, but she gives up thinking about the reality.

Director Biography - Gyeong won Park

I majored in Film Arts at Dong-Ah Institute of Media and Arts (DIMA) with a strong interest in addressing perspectives on marginalized groups. For my first film, I explored the challenges faced by a young girl experiencing her first menstruation in the absence of parental support. Later, I created an autobiographical film addressing issues such as societal prejudice toward disabilities and the lack of adequate welfare facilities.
