A Masterpiece depicting, age, relevance, neglect, death, and friendship.

A tale about beginnings and endings wolven intricately with complex subjects such as neglect, one's relevance, one place in the world and the awareness of one's demise. This is a short 1 hour tv movie. Though it discusses many such heavy topics, It is deceitfully light. The storytelling is innocent but deep. The movie will surely leave a deep impression on any one even if they don't understand the words. The acting is charming, conveying most of the characters through body language and expressions. This story hardly "tells" the viewer anything. Everything is instead shown through subtle actions and situations. Two people who each represent the beginning and the ending meet a pregnant women, while one unavoidably accepts their that their time has passed while the other, though just staring is bitter, but still marvels at this prologue of sorts. It may seem like a straightforward drama about a young boy and an old man coming together and learning to accept each other, it is however much more than that. Through their nonsensical almost borderline childish adventure, there is always a background sense of a shadow, Shota's childish outbursts at rejection, Jun-chan's health giving in despite his will, there is always a sense of foreboding throughout the journey. Generational divide is showcased organically. While both parties are in constant conflict as they are at opposite spectrum of life, they are at the same time similar in how neither can connect with the current time period. The movie covers so many themes in the span of an hour but never feels heavy. It is a breeze. This is truly a masterpiece which deserves way more attention.
