The Gist: Left by her mother in the care of their unsympathetic aunt, 5-year-old Ling must take care of her younger sister as they adjust to a harsher life in the rural countryside of South Korea.

Much of the reason why I'm looking forward to seeing Treeless Mountain is So Yong Kim's debut film In Between Days (2006) won a Special Jury Prize for independent vision at Sundance and the FIPRESCI Prize at the Berlin Film Festival.
Release Date/Status?: Currently in post-production, a fall film festival release is foreseeable.
