About This DVD
After a tough but lucky jailbreakĄ¦
Jae-pil and Mu-Suk face an unbelievable reality that they must find a way to go back to their cells!. Was this situation developed just for comic relief in the film? Director, Kim-Sang-Jin shows his unique narration style and successfully drives a slight twist in an ironic situation in life into a comedy. The audience is left to peep into the deep insights and the sharp criticisms of the life that hide behind the laughs. "Jail Breakers" shows the harsh reality of the world that awaits the escaped convicts who have nowhere to turn to and nothing to do. It further targets the oppression and tyranny that the inmates must face, blocked away from the outside world. The film also questions the judgments placed on those that are estranged and neglected and strikes the distorted contradictions in society.
Wanting to be included in the Independence Day Special Pardons list, Jae-Pil (Sul, Kyoung-Gu) diligently leads an exemplary prison life. Just when he's set to get out and marry the love of his life, Kyoung-soon comes for a visit and drops the bomb that she will be getting married to someone else!
Determined to change the cheating girlfriend's heart and mind, our model inmate decides to escape from prison.
After stealing some bread and not being able to give ID, Mu-suk is sent straight to jail on unjust charges. Feeling that he is unfairly stuck, he makes numerous but hopeless escape attempts only to remain unsuccessful. One afternoon, he lands on a spoon and begins making an escape route for the next six years. On the day that he finally completes digging his escape hole, Jae-Pil appears out of nowhere and joins in the escape!
The two prisoners make their escapes and bid never ever to return to their cells!! Reading their first early morning paper from the outside, they discover their names under the Independence Day Special Pardoned Releases listĄ¦.
They could have easily walked out of the prison gates being under the Special Pardons list. But, they went past the gates a little too soon! Will Jae-Pil and Mu-suk ever succeed in going through the even tougher barriers that keep them from getting back in?
