Although urban centers are the manifestation of humans, they are also man's self-imposed curse, because cities are the root of all alienation in modern society. A touching tale of estrangement from the human swarm, "Seoul-1964-Winter" tells the emotional story of a sad and lonely man, a man who has lost more than just his wife in his descent into utter and complete failure, who goes so far as to contemplate suicide when he realizes he has no one and nothing left in this world.
