접경 지역의 여느 마을. 방학을 맞아 채집을 위해 뒷산에 오른 겸과 솔. 남매는 쓰임새를 알 수 없는 의문의 구체를 줍게 된다.

<소년유랑>, <우리는 서로 사랑해야 한다>를 통해 공간에 존재하고 스쳐지나가는 아이들의 이야기를 공감각적인 연출로 표현해 많은 주목을 받았던 이루리 감독의 신작.

A village near the North Korean border echoes with the sounds of military artillery and North Korean propaganda. During summer vacation, a young brother and sister venture up a mountain to gather berries. Heavy rains a month ago have damaged the trees, created a large waterway down the hill, and scattered debris at the mouth of the river. Torn warnings of unexploded bombs and landmines lie near the old barracks along the mountain trail the children follow. Soon after, the siblings stumble upon a mysterious sphere with an unknown purpose.

Director LEE Ru-ri has gained recognition in the Korean film scene for her sensitive portrayal of children existing and passing through different spaces. Dealing with the lingering effects of the Korean War that continue to haunt generations of Koreans more than 70 years after the armistice, her new film tells a story that is darker and more pessimistic than any of her previous works.
