Breath

The film tells the story of Yeon, who finds that her loveless marriage is getting worse as she discovers that her husband, who seems to care little for her already, is having an affair. In desperation she reaches out to a story on the news about a death row prisoner who has attempted suicide yet again, and in a flash of rebellion she goes to visit him.
The prisoner is biding his time before his sentence is carried out and has no visitors, but when Yeon visits him he is strangely drawn to her. Each time she visits she brings with her a different season and decorates the visiting room in that style, she sings to him and tells him of her life, and he never speaks a word in return.
A bond and attraction grows between them, and each visit escalates with the problems in her own life...
