At the end of the school year Okju, her little brother Dongju and their father move in with the grandfather they hardly know. This is not just because the old man needs care. After his divorce, their father is as good as broke and although grandpa's three-room apartment is pretty unsuitable, it provides temporary shelter to the family. Not long afterwards, their aunt, whose marriage is on the rocks, moves in as well. With acutely observed moments, this is a remarkable debut reminiscent, both in theme and style, of Japanese master Kore-eda Hirokazu.
