    the face

    The confession of a military man about the experience of work in senior house. For venerable people, fears, memories- especially about war - the life in different world influenced by the near us one in dramatic way.

    All shaved, easy impression to be, in fact, one. But the things are nuanced about an old man who attracts his attention. The visit of daughter offers a precious gift to military man defining, in proper - precise terms, his experience in that place.

    A reminder of war's lasting scars

    Clearly an anti-war animated short, this film carries a deeply depressing tone. We see elderly people who have endured countless wars in and around Korea, many suffering from PTSD and haunted by the horrors they lived through. Meanwhile, society around them moves forward into modernity and prosperity-but the people remain prisoners of other pressures, making them not so different from those who directly witnessed the wars.

    The story is told through the eyes of a young man assigned to work in a nursing home. The drawing style, combined with a minimal and dark color palette, reinforces the heavy, somber atmosphere. This is a film with a strong message-a reminder that we must not forget the horrors of war and authoritarian regimes. Survivors remember, and they do so for good reason.
