On her journey, she meets Ok-nam, a woman who prostituted herself in order to buy her child a piano. the bus leads them into an unknown mountain, where they rescue a singer named Yoo-jin, who in despair because of cancer, tries to kill herself. The three women head for the flower isle, where it is rumored sadness and pain are cured. To the director, their pain comes from the human condition itself. He believes that people all have incurable inner wounds which stem from an inescapable fate. In a way "Flower island" is a film asking an question of how wounds of the soul heal themselves. The film is like a documentary about a journey of convalescence from collective illness. The director began shooting the film with a few words in his mind and a lightweight digital camera.
