Synopsis
A drunken man and a woman battered by her husband, and her husband gather and make a fuss in the police substation. A young policeman who just broke up with his girlfriend cannot afford to listen to the drunken man. A middle-aged policeman is confused while inquiring the battered wife and her husband who can\'t understand why his wife left him. The police substation is lit up like a lighthouse at the corner of the city people are confined in, and the wave of the people\'s episodes flows like a river.
Program Note
People in the police precinct office in the middle of the night are not well. There are a person who got caught for making trouble under influence, a
woman avoiding her husband¡¯s violence, and a man yelling to bring his wife who avoided his beating back. However, the police officers who have to
listen to these not-well people and solve their problems have their own words to speak out. Then, where and how do they speak out? [LEE Angela]
