Jung Ju has lost her son to heart disease and can’t break free from the pain of that loss. She spends most of her waking hours working, drinking and going to church, but it doesn’t help her at all. One day, Min Gu, a young man newly out of prison joins her company. Looking shabby and his face covered with scars, Min Gu brings Jung Ju’s old memories that she forgot 12 years ago.

Clean-Up (2019) - 05/04/2024.

I'm really surprised no-one has written about this movie.

Am also wondering why it didn't make it over 8 as a rating because it is really good. Could it be because it is a tiny bit slow in unfolding the story or because the actors are realistic in what they are portraying with no unnecessary thrills or effects.

Although it is about a woman that lost her son due to a bad heart as a child we don't see much of him at all - this is more about an ex prisoner she meets later on in her work environment (Sweepers) that reminds her of the past, but for "different reasons" other than her son.

SPOILER ALERT!

It seems her and her ex husband abducted him to get a large sum of money when he was about 10 years old. As a consequence of that, however, it impacted on the boy in a negative way.

It is really sad when it comes out as to what happened to him and his life afterwards and why, also, her to some extent.

SPOILER ALERT!

It kind of has an OLDBOY feel (if you've watched it) to it with the way it is filmed, also, due to what develops between the two a bit later on which is messed up yet makes sense if you look at it from both of their perspectives.

What is explored in this movie is the relationship between a victim and abductor years after the fact, only one wants forgiveness knowing what they did and who the victim is, and the has no idea until the clues fall into place...

Worth the time and effort to WATCH!
