Burmese on the Roof

Directed by Oh Hyun-jin

Soe, Joe, and Tommy came from a land they call ‘Burma.’ They are illegal foreign workers in Korea. Hard work worn them out, but they hold onto their lives with a sole pride; being a breadwinner for the family back home. On the weekends, they comfort themselves with bottles of hard liquors. Soe and Joe are determined to go back home finally after a decade, but Tommy is determined not to go back until he can make a flashy return with good sum of money.
