The Demilitarized Zone(DMZ) is the most dangerous zone in the world, established on July 27, 1953 when the Armistice Agreement was signed during the Korean War. And now in the DMZ... the struggle for survival of a female police officer who stepped on a landmine while chasing a jailbreaker. She only has Bluetooth, a revolver, and courage!
Director's Statement
The DMZ is the most dangerous area in the world. And the DMZ still has many land mines buried. I wanted to give tension to a thriller genre movie with a limited space and a few characters through the process of escaping a crisis by female police who steps on land mine in DMZ.
