Synopsis

There is a painting called ‘The Shaman Sorceress’ left at ‘my’ home by a mute girl and her father. As is always the case, this picture is worth a thousand words. The story behind the painting begins with a shaman named Mohwa who has been living with her mute daughter Nang-Yi and practicing shamanism her entire life. One day her son Wook-Yi, who had been gone for several years to study returns home, but as a converted Christian. This sparks a conflict between Wook-Yi and Mohwa and drives the family into tragedy.
