An Impossibly Small Object

A Dutch photographer (played by David Verbeek himself – also a talented photographer in real life) takes a picture of a girl in a parking lot in nighttime Taipei as she plays with her kite. The photo transports us into her life. She is eight years old and is about to lose her best friend, a boy from a wealthy family who is moving to America. Back in the Netherlands, the photographer is confronted with his own constant loneliness. The photo of the girl evokes memories of his own childhood, when he still felt at home somewhere.

Testimony

Hyein, who has been working as a secretary at 'Yoo Seung Precision', a small business, and was fired due to contract expiration, visits 'Yoo Seung Precision', her former workplace, to get a career certificate ahead of an upcoming interview at a large company. However, the real purpose of her visit is to get back the 67,600 won, which the manager Jin Sang-i of the same team has not paid back for running errands for coffee and sandwiches. When she finally arrives at her office, she asks Hye-in Lee to return her money, but she only gets 50,000 won. The only thing she approached the frustrated Hye-in was the (but awkward) Deputy Oh, who was the only female employee on the same team.

Anne Frank Meets God

Based on a poem by a WWII vet, Anne Frank Meets God is a haunting film set in one of the darkest moments in human history. It explores the unanswered questions that arise in the face of tragedy and in the deaths of those who are far, far too young. It is a meditation on life, on death, and on purpose. The film imagines a final reckoning between Anne Frank (Aubrey Peeples) and God (Lorraine Toussaint). It is a reminder of the effect that just one person, even a young girl hidden away, can have on the world
