South Korea, United States, 2008 | 89 min. | Dir. So Yong Kim | Rated NR
Abandoned by their mother, a pair of South Korean girls—one six, the other four—find themselves under the care of their neglectful drunkard of an aunt. A heartbreaker, to be sure, but one that gets most of its effect from training the camera on its subjects and waiting for a spark, rather than any real sense of narrative momentum. Even accounting for good intentions (and a wistfully lovely ending) this is a bit of a letdown, especially when compared with the thematically similar Nobody Knows. I will now go kick a puppy.
