Government-made hate against foreign schools, technical intern trainees, refugees, immigration authorities, etc. The essence of discrimination against foreigners. In March 2021, a Sri Lankan woman, Wishma Sandamali, 3, died at the Nagoya Immigration Bureau.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its argument by using the tragic death of Wishma Sandamali as a focal point, exploring the decades-long legal architecture of discrimination. It relies on a stark contrast between historical policies targeting Korean residents and present-day injustices against trainees and refugees.

What lingers after viewing is a profound sense of a system designed to exclude. The documentary builds a compelling, distressing case against institutional indifference. — MovieFinder Editorial
