I knew absolutely nothing about this one going in – in fact, I kind of thought it was a documentary or something. It is not, though it does have a historical setting. During the Korean War, a couple of soldiers from South Korea and a small group of North Korean soldiers get separated from their respective armies, and end up in the same isolated mountain village, whose eccentric residents have no knowledge of the war or modernity in general (they have no idea what guns and grenades are). Oh, there’s also an American soldier there. After a tense few days, this motley crew of abandoned enemies become involved in the life of the village, forming a new unified society with the villagers – until an American unit comes to finish the job the lost American soldier didn’t, cutting off supply lines to North Korea.
