This one is beautiful. The story of a mother looking for a female murderer gradually evolves into a story of the minority declaring war on the majority amid discrimination and prejudice, and even better than that. The story is very intriguing because of the complex mix of reality and human nature. The tension full of dramatic conflict always stirs up tension.

Maybe it provides a perspective to consider life: every detail stirs up undercurrents, and in the chaotic reality, it is difficult for us to find true balance - not too much anger, or too much tears.
