About

Ancient Korea, July 4, 1762. The Crown Prince Hyojang, posthumously named Sado, son of King Yeongjo of Joseon, is accused of treason. Thus, the king asks him to commit suicide, but his closest vassals prevent it, so the king orders the prince to get inside a wooden rice chest, where he suffers deprivation of food and water.
This claustrophobic tragedy transforms a wooden rice chest into a suffocating prison of political paranoia and paternal cruelty. Instead of sweeping battlefield spectacles, the tension builds through the agonizing psychological warfare between a king and his son.
