Synopsis
There remains only silence in a US military camp town in the northern part of Gyeonggi province which will be pulled down any time soon. In the town, three women are still living with pains engraved in their bodies. Aunt Bobby who used to make burgers in Seonyu-ri for 30 years; Ms. Insoon Park who used to collect scraps and draw paintings on them in the abandoned narrow alleys of Bbat-bul, Uijeongbu; and Ms. Sungja Ahn who is half- Korean and half-African American. Following the pieces of their memories, the film travels into the forgotten town to reveal the truth left behind.
Director’s note
<Tour of Duty> is an homage to disappearing U.S. military town and three of surviving women there as the witnesses of all time. We(=directors) mainly focusing on the lives of these women in their own narrative ways to remember the camp town. It is an attempt to face the fateful wound returning beyond space and time through their journey.
