There is a low-rise apartment in the process of being demolished in Jeongneung-dong, Seongbuk-gu, Seoul. The camera films the lonely, deserted scenery in a certain pattern and often stops at the doodles of children. With this scenery, the narrator of the film intones his childhood memories. These are about the senses, often related to his teeth, and the memories of his family that come from those senses. In fact, the concrete apartment buildings and the baby teeth on soft gums are very distant from each other in terms of sensation, time and space, but Anxiety of Concrete manages to connect the two and resonates with its stylish language. This is what separates Anxiety of Concrete from many montage films consisting of scenery and words. Though the film deals with anxiety, it has a low and stable attitude.
