Navidad en Agosto

A hospital cafeteria’s air conditioning seems to be on permanent strike. Jung-won, a photographer whose life is draining like silver halide in developer, meets a cheerful traffic cop who clocks every red light but never sees the ones in his heart. The film knows how the story ends; we just watch it blanch under fluorescent grief.
