Program Note

A wood monster conceives a child covered in roots, ugly and out of control. The monster finds a liquid named Perfect, feeds it, and sculpts the child into a human form, gradually transforming it into the perfect being. This grotesque stop-motion animation depicts the subtexts of social ideology, childbirth and parenting. (LEE Dongyun)
