20th Anniversary: Pak And Son Travels

A quirky tale that tells of the estranged relationship between a father, Mr. Pak, and his son, Gregory. The former holds a party to celebrate both the 20th anniversary of the successful tour agency that they anchor, as well as Gregory’s 20th birthday. Things turn sour however, when party plans go awry and Gregory does not show up until much later. In drunken anguish, Mr. Pak reveals to his son the truth about his Japanese mother and his own part in perpetuating the deception.
