In 1963, 131 women escaped from a shelter in Seoul. The director struggles to find 'Okja' who led the escape.

Late on a rainy night in 1963, 131 women escaped from the Seoul Women's Shelter. They made a hole in a wall, secretly made ropes out of clothes, and climbed over the 4m fence and wire. The leader of the escape was Kim Okja, born in 1942. The director decides to find 'Kim Okja.' The director faces the shadow of the shelter and Korea's modernization through meeting victims of 'Seoul Women's Shelter' and digging into the archives. The government established the shelter in 1961, accommodating tens of thousands of women on the streets for 30 years. Women were in poor conditions, and hundreds were forced to marry strangers for their country. Can the director dig out the reality of the shelter buried in the passing years and meet 'Kim Okja'?

This story begins in an era when many people left their hometowns and flocked to the city. In the 1960s and 1970s, streets were overflowing with people, such as orphans, vagrants, prostitutes, and ragtag. The government sent them to shelters. The government even made people marry strangers. However, the stories of the women have been kept secret until now because most of the shelters, including 'Seoul Women Shelter,' have been framed as places where prostitutes went. However, looking at the law, the shelter accommodated "those who engaged in prostitution or were likely to engage in prostitution." In other words, the government could send every woman to the shelter. The victims are still silent about the pain to this day. The 'oppression that makes them unable to speak' is why I must make this film.
