Anna Carlson is an international human rights lawyer and is drawn to the case of Suk-bo-Yi, a 99 year old woman who’s a suspect in a Koreatown nursing home death. Suk-bo wants to tell Anna a great deal and her story begins back in 1937 when the Japanese invaded Korea. Suk-bo was forced to marry a Japanese man named Hisashi. The resulting union should have been a nightmare for Suk-bo, but she and her new husband fall in love with each other. When Hisashi joins the Japanese army, Suk-bo has no idea where he has gone, but she vows to find him, no matter how long it takes, no matter what she has to sacrifice. This is a beautiful story that illustrates the incredible power of love, even in the face of the most horrendous circumstances
