A Woman Dancing on the Waves

The story

As her dementia deepens, Yoon Young-ja, who has spent her entire life as a shaman, moves between a nursing home and her family home. Her words drift between conversations with the dead, memories of her youth, and the confusion of the present. Amid her repeated wandering and anxiety, the family prepares a final ritual to close the long-shuttered shrine. When the doors finally open and the ritual begins, with family and disciples gathered around her, her body rediscovers a rhythm it seemed to have forgotten. Different times collide, and long-buried emotions begin to surface.
