Documentary filmmaker Da-hae (Song Hye-kyo) loses her fiance when he was knocked down by a motorbike by a hit and run teenage boy on her birthday. Based on her belief as a Catholic, she forgives him and signs a petition to revoke the juvenile's death penalty. One year later, Da-hae is commissioned by the Catholic Church to make a documentary on the inhumanity of capital punishment. However, her moral convictions and desire to be compassionate are seriously questioned when she finds out that the teenage driver killed a classmate, not long after his reprieve.[3]
