눈과 돌멩이

For nearly twenty years Yu-mi, Jae-han and Su-jin were friends, loosely but closely. When Su-jin, ill with cancer, takes her own life, the two who are left wait for winter and carry her ashes to Japan, on the trip to Nagoya she had always wanted them to make together. On the way to the cedar forest of Togakushi, where they mean to scatter her, they keep running into how much about her they never knew. After the cold farewell in the snow they find themselves stranded, and are taken in by Koyo, a local they had whispered about at lunch that day, who also keeps a daily prayer for someone gone.
