The world has been reduced to rubble by a massive earthquake. While no one knows for sure how far the ruins stretch, or what the cause of the earthquake may be, in the heart of Seoul there is only one apartment building left standing. It is called Hwang Gung Apartments. As time passes, outsiders start coming in to Hwang Gung Apartments trying to escape the extreme cold. Before long, the apartment residents are unable to cope with the increasing numbers. Feeling a threat to their very survival, the residents enact a special measure.

Viewing Notes
Our third film of DFF 46 and it was completely full. We ended up having to sit in the back row of the first section of seats, which wasn’t ideal, but at least we got seated. I can never tell which films are going to be packed and which aren’t. It’s a little frustrating when you have to drive so far to get there in the first place.
This is South Korea’s 2024 Oscar entry. While it’s good, I don’t think it’s Oscar class.
