Breakdown
Number Four is a Korean sex-slave fleeing from the Imperial Japanese army. Luke Woods is an abandoned American soldier. The two find each other in an attempt to survive the war. They end up with more than they'd bargained for - a baby. Ana, a 30-year-old woman in the ‘70s finds herself in a hotel room in Seoul, Korea, getting to know Luke and Number Four’s tale through a journal, and a little bit of weed/help from Jesus.
seeking:
LUKE WOODS:
Male. Late teens - early twenties. A US soldier in WWII. Young, intense, funny. LUKE finds himself separated from his troops, with only a faulty radio. As he tries to find his way back to camp, he meets a young Korean woman searching for her lost sister. Together, they fight for survival.
NUMBER FOUR:
Female 15-19 years old. Korean comfort woman. No-nonsense, take-charge survivor. NUMBER FOUR is the named assigned to her by the invading army. She and her sister were captured and consigned to be sex slaves.
ANA WOODS:
Female 29 years old. Luke’s daughter. Half Korean. Still searching for self, and making sense of life. ANA grew up in the United States. She flies to Korea to collect the ashes of her father who had recently committed suicide.
JESUS:
Is Jesus Christ. Contemporary, weird, old, young, ancient. Chameleon. Biting and a comedian. JESUS is a weed-smoking, snarky chameleon who morphs into multiple personalities, shaping the story, intervening when needed.
