A mermaid appeared in the blue waters of Jeju Island. Due to global warming, the tides have become irregular, trapping the mermaid on the shore. Soon, the mermaid is discovered by the villagers. However, unlike the image in human imagination, the mermaid's appearance seems somehow off. Five men—the village chief, the owner of a seafood restaurant, a politician, a YouTuber, and a university researcher—each with their own ulterior motives, approach the mermaid.

Zero Waste

As the world continues to come face to face with the consequences of decades of environmental degradation, Danny Kim’s documentary Zero Waste explores the ways that five individuals in South Korea have taken it upon themselves to create solutions to the country’s plastic waste problems, which has been exasperated by the global pandemic, and whether their efforts can be enough to make up for decades of neglect. Both sobering and uplifting, Zero Waste paints a portrait of both the magnitude of the problem, and the perseverance of those people willing to address them.

bleared eyes of blue glass

The "bleared eyes of blue glass" in the title of this experimental short expand on a verbal image from Virginia Woolf's novel The Waves, considered the most experimental among the 20th-century British writer's literary works, from which the young filmmaker took inspiration for his film, borrowing passages and visions to explain his own understanding of what cinema is. A film that plays with water - precisely - and light, and yet in a very dark b&w lit up by rare flashes of colour, making a journey in the night in which the shadow of a man gradually acquires substance.
