Director Hwang of Wanju Police Station receives a report that the true criminals of ‘Samrye Nara-Supermarket Murder Case’ are not the ones currently arrested. He tries to exonerate the falsely accused suspects but gets intercepted by Choi Woo-sung, the detective in charge, and the cartel of public prosecutors and Yoon Mi-sook, the victim who survived but refused to cooperate due to her trauma, and gets repositioned to a distant island. 15 years later, the three suspects and Yoon Mi-sook come to director Hwang asking for help with retrial, and director Hwang overcomes the past where he could not uncover the truth against political powers and finally draws testimony of the true criminal. 

This screening is supported by KOFIC and the Korean Film Archive.
