16m
Coho is a proxy driver who gets paid to drive other people's cars so that they can freely go drinking. His clients only think they see a man who is all out of luck but what mysterious past is he actually hiding?
Director Statement
This movie was inspired by the tragic Sewol Ferry accident that resulted in the loss of hundreds of innocent victims, many of whom were teenagers. In Korea's rush to economic success we have lost sight of the core values that have made Koreans work hard such as caring for family and other people. Materialism has never been one of Korea's cherished virtues. My hope is that viewers in other countries can understand that economic progress should never outweigh mutual respect or personal integrity.
Written & Directed by Dae Ryun Chang
