The Korean government is currently displacing elderly farmers from their land in order to accommodate the relocation of a U.S. military base from its current location in Seoul to Daechuri, Pyeongtaek. This documentary is an expression of each student's experience with the farmers in Daechuri, their traditional culture and modern art, and their daily struggle against the Korean government's illegal actions to drive them off their lands. As the tensions grow stronger each day, it is imperative that the U.S. and Korea assume responsibility for their actions.
