cmn10_3Crossing, an eloquent expression of the emotional trauma of political division. Yong-soo escapes the grinding poverty of North Korea to China, hoping to find medicine for his pregnant wife, but ends up in South Korea, separated from his family forever. Years later,  Yong-soo's orphaned son in North Korea makes the same escape, hoping to find the father he never knew.
