Synopsis
A car accident leaves a 22-year-old young man bound to a wheelchair for the rest of his life. The elderly driver who hit him gives the family a house and pays monthly compensation, yet he still cannot forgive himself. The boy’s mother believes that as long as one is alive, there is hope. His unemployed father devotes himself entirely to caring for him. The physical therapist who guides his rehabilitation quietly falls in love with him. Because of the accident, the family begins gathering for dinner every night, finding a fragile sense of togetherness. But his perceptive younger sister knows the truth behind their beautiful new home: it was bought with her brother’s broken body.
