Summer Snow
No matter how ordinary life is, there are always trivial mundane matters, as well as illnesses and death. In the drama of life, we all have to face all kinds of helplessness and hardship in reality. May is a competent woman both at work and at home, but one of her troubles is the old Mr. Sun – her stubborn and authoritative father-in-law who is suffering from Alzheimer's disease after the sudden death of his wife. The old man doesn't even recognise his children and grandchildren, but he remembers May – he still often yells at her and calls her home to cook. The Sun family is exhausted from taking care of the old man. He is sent to a daycare home, but more problems are caused by his increasingly serious condition. May, who used to be at odds with the old man, unexpectedly becomes the most reliable support in his last days. Instead of dramatising the tragic and miserable life of old age, the seemingly plain plot depicts more the daily moments of mutual support and complaints in the family, as well as the bonding built between May and the old man. With a tender touch, it tells an ethical story full of humanistic concern.

A Floating Hope
It's the little boy's birthday and he is looking forward to seeing his mother who has left home and remarried – a hug or a gift is enough to change his world. In the frequent and intensive close-ups with a mother who is never shown clearly and a kid with bright and delicate glances, the film tells a heartbreaking story of a helpless family in a subtle way.
