Program Note
A film is commissioned to capture a girl for seven days in the sealed room of an abandoned hotel. However, as the protagonist becomes more and more confused about what is true, the authenticity of the images becomes uncertain. This work questions the fundamental act of “taking someone’s photograph”. As a companion piece to Hakuchi: The Innocent at the Venice Film Festival and the Busan Film Festival, it was actually filmed without a script for seven days. (HONG Sanghyun)
