A picture is worth a thousand words, and so are the photos in this documentary as they weave together the history of Korea by disclosing the faces of ordinary people on the streets, in the rural areas going about their lives as history unfolds before them, often in tragic terms. This is a documentary that inspires its viewers to find out more about the events causing the pictures they see. The documentary begins with blank expressions of contemporary Koreans inside a huge shopping center. Most have been laid off work as the economic bubble has collapsed. I. Lost Faces 1945-1948: people and streets show people and places unaware of the impending war. II. Refugees and Prisoners of War 1950-1953: faces under the shadow of war. III. Mobilization and Labor 1953-1966: the mobilization triggered by war, the fatigue of labor and the human mind.
