Nancy is a young thirty-five who lives with his elderly mother was seriously ill with Parkinson's disease in the deep American province away from the spotlight of the metropolis. He landed a living with odd jobs from minor and his best friend Chicken, the family cat.

With a non-existent love life, punctuated only by the elderly mother care materials with which he inevitably contrasts, It is looking on the internet of a report, but his duplicity betray. His life collapses when her mother suddenly dies and consequently loses not only the physical presence but also the poor retirement aid.

An appeal on TV a couple who for thirty years living with the anguish of the mysterious disappearance of daughter just 5 years triggers an obsessive thought. Its weak temperament eager for affection convinces her that she is the small subtracted desperate couple.

In a party game where the three would like another truth unfolds a tale all psychological where the protagonist and his hypnotic gaze does not leave the viewer time to reflect.

The film is based on the wonderful interpretation of Riseborough assisted by Steve Buscemi (Fargo) e J. Smith Cameron (Parents searching for the missing daughter), of Ann Down (Mother) and the young John Leguizamo in the part of the young met on internet, The other character is the deep snow-covered province of North America in which unfolds the drama of Nancy solitude in a piece almost theatrical. The choice of a photograph that shows and does not show is the icing on the cake.

Nancy does not make you breathe last, but in the end she will make the right decision.

And 'commendable effort of the Mariposa Film Festival that brings the big screen to the big screen of an author like Choe who started with documentaries on North Korea. And 'interesting to say if the director:

"Early work with which I began are documentaries, which means that now I have realized how the truth can be shaped, manufactured and conveyed. In the last five years I have traveled to North Korea three times, secretly filming a people too often considered bizarre or victim of brainwashing. My purpose was simply connect at a human and emotional level with those people, and in fact it ended up being almost a family. Despite the banality of my intentions, I found myself constantly asking me what was true and what was false - no doubt inevitable in a country so closely controlled. I was never really sure if the person in front of me was sincere or reciting a script. Myself, when it was stopped by the authorities, I declared that I was just shooting a home movie for my parents, and tell half-truths (and half-lies) to survive and avoid imprisonment, in my turn I ended up not being entirely truthful with people who sometimes felt like brothers and sisters.
