Synopsis by Jason Buchanan

The disheartening humiliations and crippling physical traumas endured by your typical Korean stuntman serve as the focus of director Jung Byoung-gil's look at the attempts by five ambitious stuntmen to make a name for themselves in what many filmmakers consider the most unforgiving film industry on the planet. After witnessing their audition tapes and watching them develop their talents in stunt school, the viewer gets to see just what it's like to try and earn a healthy living by enduring unimaginable physical punishment.
