我失踪的阿姨 양양

In trying to understand my aunt’s decision to take her own life over 40 years ago, I begin to question the place of women in Korean society as well as within my own family.

On a wintery night, Juyeon receives a call from her father. In his drunken voice, he leaves strange remarks, “Don’t become like your aunt who committed suicide.” Stunned by the family secret, she starts chasing the traces of her aunt, who resembles her strikingly. Juyeon breaks the suffocating silence and recreates her aunt’s lost voice through animation.
