“Compassion, a keen eye for urban landscape, and a dollop of whimsy … an enrapturing turn on an old theme.”

“A WINNER.”
—Screen International
To be free … to find success … to never be apart … When you were twenty, what did you dream of? Five school friends cling to their bond as they face uncertain futures in the port city of Incheon, especially when one girl’s big city ambitions take her to Seoul. Determined not to drift apart, they communally adopt a cat and share caregiving responsibilities, passing it from girl to girl in an attempt to stay connected. But can the promises of youth survive the realities of adulthood? Starring Bae Doona (LINDA LINDA LINDA) and celebrating its 25th anniversary, this female‑written and directed debut sprang from a desire to portray modern women rarely seen on screen. Decades on, it still feels groundbreaking.
