Overview
A fake documentary quoting 《A Little Princess》 (by Frances Hodgson Burnett, 1905) to depict young, precarious museum workers living in an unstable working environment. When the night comes, a woman who works at a nearby museum goes on a weasel hunt in Jungnang River to earn pocket money. Young, highly educated female workers who move between short-term contracts and part-time jobs may be the girls in ermine coats, but the film suggests that they are the ermines for a coat.
