What could be worse for a ten-year-old than not having any friends? Not for lack of trying, Sun is the outsider in her class. Wherefore she is delighted when newcomer Jia befriends her. The two dissimilar girls spend the summer holidays together – they seem inseperable, tell each other their deepest secrets and visit each other’s homes. However, when the new school year begins, everyday reality puts their relationship to the test. Yoon Ga-eun’s powerful feature film debut takes the audience inside the twists and turns of a blossoming friendship. It calmly yet tenaciously draws out the relationships of school girls that are as worrisome and difficult as those of adults.
