Poetry - 2010 - 7/10
AKA - 시
Bitter Korean film of the spirit vs the flesh.
66 year old grandmother went to clinic for hurt arm, after testing was diagnosed with early Alzheimer’s.
She is raising her teenage grandson during the peak rebellion years.
You want to hate the kid, but he is only a teenager.
He is making bad friends, bad decisions, and on the brink of learning the definition of consequences.
The story is the grandmother Mija’s, however, trying to protect her grandson, going to class to learn how to write poetry, all while the light of understanding is flickering out.
Well done, not for the ostrich.
