Gi and Il-sun live behind North Korea's iron curtain, under the watchful eye of Dear Leader. As orphans, growing up on a diet of thin soup and propaganda, life is a struggle against hunger and fear. But tender Gi and headstrong Il-sun find consolation in each other and their unlikely friendship grows as deep as the bond between sisters.
Everything will change when a man comes into their lives. As Gi and Il-sun are taken from their jobs in a clothing factory and spirited across the border to the South, they begin a journey that will test the strength of their friendship and their entire understanding of the world.
Heart-wrenching, redemptive and beautifully written, ALL WOMAN AND SPRINGTIME is an unforgettable portrait of the most mysterious country on earth and of a young woman who loses everything but refuses to be destroyed.
