The read
It runs a compact 24m.
Synopsis
Hyun-jin, a ten-year-old novice monk, lives in a mountain temple. One day music drifts over from the Catholic church across the forest, and he follows it. There he meets Sister Maria. Where words fail them, music does the talking — and when the temple's bodhisattvas, Avalokiteshvara and Ksitigarbha, join in, it escalates into a full dance battle. A 24-minute fantasy where the boundary between faith and instinct begins to blur.
