No Tomorrow (Korean: 섬. 사라진 사람들; RR: Seom. Sarajin Saramdeul) is a 2016 South Korean film starring Park Hyo-joo and Lee Hyun-wook. The story is loosely based on the 2014 Salt Farm Slavery Incident in the island county of Sinan in South Jeolla Province, in which disabled men were sold as laborers, forced to work without pay, and beaten if they didn’t work hard enough; other islanders were complicit in helping the slavers find victims who tried to escape. The real-life investigation was spurred by a letter from one of the victims. In the film, an independent investigator and a cameraman try to unravel the mystery after receiving a tip from an informant. A quote from Bernard Shaw appears in the closing credits: "The worst sin towards our fellow creatures is not to hate them, but to be indifferent to them."
Plot
An informant contacts journalist Lee Hye-ri (Park) to report that laborers at a salt farm, who have cognitive disabilities, have actually been enslaved. She and cameraman Jo Suk-hoon (Lee) disguise themselves as documentary filmmakers who are interested in salt harvesting and go to the island where the farm is located. They question the local residents but find them secretive and distrustful. As the pair continues to ask questions, a violent attack occurs in which four people end up dead; the salt farm owner (Choi Il-hwa) and his son (Ryu) go missing along with one worker, while Hye-ri is severely injured and ends up in a coma. Detective Choi (Choi Gwi-hwa) and an investigative police officer (Bae Yu-ram) pick up the case.
