“Mrs. A (65 years old), who has been living in a 162m2 apartment for 10 years with some content future prospect, is now in despair. The factory that was run by Mrs. A’s husband has recently gone bankrupt and their home is now being auctioned. At the same time, her husband has been diagnosed with rectal cancer stage 4 and cardiac infarction, waiting for his death in a hospital. The apartment blocks surrounding her home are growing like mushrooms, taking over nearby fields and mountains. Grey high risers are all connected by a network of busy car roads that fume constantly. Mrs. A’s home sweet home is now a prison cell and, slowly choking her.”

“10년 전 49평 신축아파트에 이사하고 노후에 대한 행복감으로 살아온 결혼 37년차의 주부 A씨는 (65세) 앞길이 막막하다. A씨의 남편이 운영하던 공장이 부도가 나면서 집이 경매에 넘어감과 동시에 남편은 직장암 말기로 호스피스에 입원하여 임종을 기다리고 있다. 우후죽순으로 솟아나는 주변의 아파트들이 산과 언덕을 대신하고, 그 사이를 바쁘게 잇는 자동차 도로들은 끊임없이 매연을 뿜어내는 것처럼, A씨에게 이제 꿈에 그리던 집은 꽉막힌 교도소처럼 보이고 숨은 끊임없이 막혀올 뿐이다.”
