Synopsis

In order to desperately keep the common yard where his deceased father’s wall painting is, Sang-gu asks the village chief not to destruct it. It is impossible, however, for a mere child to change what has been decided by all the villages. He gives up persuading the village chief and decides to make a film of the wall painting (his father’s work) with the 8mm camera, his father’s memento. Min-hee opens her piggy bank and Sang-gu leaves for Seoul with her money. Riding on a train, he asks her to protect the wall painting until he returns from Seoul and tells her he would get the news about her Russian mother.
