Kim Ki-Duk`s 3rd Film

After the clearing of prostitution districts in Seoul, Jin-Ah sets out to Birdcage
Inn in Po-Hang. The owner has a daughter in college named Hea-Mi, and
son in high school, Hyun-Woo. Hea-Mi despises Jin-Ah for having been a
prostitute, and they begin to have problems. Jin-Ah happens to spend a night
together with Hea-Mi's boyfriend, and the situation collapses when Hyun-
Woo and his father begin to fight. Being in their prime, these two girls have
conflicting lives; Jin-Ah sells sex but is free fro it while Hea-Mi is closed and
hypocritical about sex. The situation becomes critical when a nude picture of
Jin-Ah leads to scandal and an attempted suicide. Just before everything
falls apart, the girls begin to discover that they have many things in common,
and the sex that alienated one from the other turns into a mediating factor for
reconciliation. In the end, Hea-Mi plans a shocking event for Jin-Ah that fills
Birdcage Inn with heart-felt friendship.
