The story revolves around two couples in very different situations: the fired worker Haoshuo and his wife Meiyu, who made a living in a mask factory, and the documentary female director Geiji and her husband Sang-woo. The four met because of a documentary film about unemployed workers, and faced the gap between class and the secret desires of life in their exchanges. After the camera was set up, power relations were nowhere to hide - high-priced handbags juxtaposed with traumatic memories, silent violence following ex-workers, subtle gazes between women, and a near-nude "bullfight" in a seaside vacation home. A whistle runs through life, reflecting calls, trauma and friendship in different lives. The title "Do not covet" shrouded every relationship, and Li Cangdong finally dropped the answer back to the clumsy, misunderstood approach between people that never gave up.
