A family of four who were forced to flee Afghanistan filmed their 5600km journey to Europe using three smartphones. The resulting movie, "Midnight Traveler," is not just a portrayal of the harsh reality faced by refugees, but also reminds us that even refugees have "happy days" filled with smiles, much like a family photo album.

"殺人犯はそこにいる(The Murderer is There)" was a topic of conversation even when it was sold with the title turned down under the name "BunkoX" in Japan. It features shocking developments that reveal "incredible facts that shake the foundation of our society" through coverage of a certain incident in North Kanto. It's not an exaggeration to say that this is a must-read book for all national.

In the 1860s, when "weather forecasting" was treated as equal to "fortune-telling," there were people who pioneered the history of meteorology using balloons. The movie "The Aeronauts" is a story about a scientist and a balloon pilot who reached an altitude of over 11,000 meters without an oxygen cylinder, and it teaches us the greatness of "adventuring beyond common sense."

I was curious about the trailer I saw at the movie theater, so I went to see the movie "WANDA" without knowing anything else about it, and I was surprised to learn that it was a movie from the 70s. I didn't feel any "oldness" at all. Barbara Loden, who not only starred in but also directed and wrote the film, left behind a historical masterpiece that has been highly regarded since her death.

The movie "Broker," directed by Hirokazu Koreeda, is about the "baby hatch (A window where parents can anonymously leave their babies who cannot be raised for various reasons)" that seem to exist in many places in Korea and asks the question of "what is justice." I think it's irrational to judge "abortion is ok, discarding is not," and I think "justice" is when "the most vulnerable parties are saved."

The movie "Audrey" is a documentary that captures the unknown face of the world-famous superstar. Based on various testimonies, it depicts the unparalleled genius, who suffered from severe hunger due to war, the disappearance of her father, the enduring sense of loneliness, and the audition for the movie "Roman Holiday" brought about by chance, as well as her activities with UNICEF.
