Synopsis
Jin-ah, a young poet preparing to publish his first poetry, cannot write any more lately. Her old lover, Gil-woo, is in a coma due to an accident falling in the Han River, but Gi-yoon, an old friend, still keeps her carefully. The consolation of the people around her makes Jin-ah feel more isolated, but she has to lead her own life. ''To My River ''captures the atmosphere of loneliness and slender hopes. It also makes us question what the artistic aura must derive from ordinary life. The present life cannot stay in the present, it keeps quiet in the memories of the past, and it also makes the future blurred. The camera traces the process in which a particular relationship makes the life of characters. [KIM Youngjin]
