SYNOPSIS

A housewife from a seemingly peaceful family begins her day washing rice. She sets the table, works the washing machine, wipes the floor, cleans the bathroom, and cooks the meals. The boring, repetitive and monotonous house chores shield the woman from the outside world. The film effectively depicts the deadly vacant life of a woman through still images and audio. (Kim Hea-seung)
