Includes violence.
On a stormy night, a drunk man stumbles back home. Vomiting accompanied by vertigo in which he sees two huge rats in his house. Disgusted and cranky he desperately attacks the two rats hoping they will go away. After a night like that, the morning wind blows everything away, leaving only the broken family portrait.
Director's Statement
Domestic violence is a problem that exists in all social classes and in all cultural societies: It only comes in zero or countless times. We hope to bring attention to domestic violence, push for the construction and improvement of relevant laws, and promote the harmonious development of society.
