A chance meeting introduces filmmaker Ye-ji to Mi-ok's family, whose lives have been affected by her husband's unemployment. They're perfect subjects for her documentary on laid-off workers, leading them to spend more time in Ye-ji and her husband's world. But as their lives intersect, the stark contrast between their class and background sees fractures begin to appear in the collaboration, forcing them to confront their marriages and the wider world they all inhabit.
