Cho Jinseok

The destinies of two men, one from the future and one from the past, become entwined as a malevolent virus spreads throughout Level 4, a digital gaming experience that blurs dreams and reality.

Portrait and journey to the grave of Oshima Nagina.

Two fixed shots, between the night streets of Tokyo and a snowy landscape of Hokkaido.

The film follows an abandoned son's search for the mother who left him. Like the final scene of Im Kwon-taek’s Gilsotteum (1986), which evokes the primal power of Korean kinship, this journey is filled with lingering images and sounds. Chronicling his travels through Japan, Portugal, and Spain, the film traces the unbreakable—if unseen—thread of blood that connects a mother and son, and extends through a scattered people.
