実在するオム・ギボンさんをモデルにして作られた映画。
This movie is based on the real figure, Om Gi Bong.
「世界で一番幸せな裸足！」
"The happiest barefoot in the world."
あ、思い出した！
Ah, I remember!
I found its book first by chance at a city library. About one year ago or so.
小さい頃の病気で知能の発育が8歳で止まってしまったギボンさんは、走ることが好きで得意な40歳。村長さんのアイディアでマラソン大会に出ることになったのですが、その練習の過程よりも何がどうって、ギボンさんのお母さんに対する愛が並大抵ではないのです。
40-year old Om Gi Bong had fever when he was little and his brain growth was stopped at an age of eight. He loves running and is good at it. The Mayor in his village came up with an idea which sends him to a marathon race. But this film's core is about how deeply Mr. Om loves his mother, not how he practices or runs at a race.

読み終わった後に自分はここまで親を大事にしているのか？ していないなら、それはなぜなのか？ という自問をせずにいられませんでした。
After reading this, I couldn't help asking myself that "do I take care of my folks? If not, why so?"
