Synopsis
Deok-bae is a seasoned Dasiraegi performer who puts on a stage play-like ritual that ushers the dead into the next life and comforts the bereaved family. His estranged daughter Soo-nam comes back home with her child Flower when she hears of her grandmother’s passing after leaving Jindo 20 years ago. Flower is initially scared of her grandfather, but Deok-bae soon opens his heart to the little girl. Soo-nam’s trauma kicks in whenever she hears cicadas’ crying that she heard when she witnessed her mother committing suicide as a child. Finally, Deok-bae begins the last Dasiraegi of his life to save Soo-nam who has been driven to the cliff of life without any hope.
