A taxi driver takes a foreign journalist to Gwangju, but they find the city under siege by the military government.
Trailer
Why watch this film?
A down-on-his-luck taxi driver from Seoul is hired by a foreign journalist who wants to go to the town of Gwangju for the day. They arrive to find a city under siege by the military government, with the citizens, led by a determined group of college students, rising up to demand freedom. What began as an easy fare becomes a life-or-death struggle in the midst of the Gwangju Uprising, a critical event in modern South Korea.
"Based on real and tragic facts from South Korea in the 1980s, it is nevertheless a romantic film, and of course, very sentimental - not to mention the strong and tension-filled sequences. A story that highlights the anonymous heroes who do nothing for recognition, but certainly deserve it."
