Lantrani
Director
An anthology film depicting three stories with themes of survival and agony.
Trolley Times
Director
The film is a portraiture of the historic and the largest sit-in protest in post-independent India, staged primarily by the farmers of Punjab, Haryana, and western Uttar Pradesh on the borders of Delhi from November 2020 to December 2021 against the three new farm laws passed by the Union Government. The title itself is derived from the newsletter Trolley Times, which started as a voice of protest by a group of activists, writers, and artists. The film is divided into four parts like four chapters of a book.

쓰디쓴 밤
Director

Sea of Lost Time
Director
Sea of Lost Time is an allegory set in an undefined time and space, evoking the magic realism of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, inspired by his characters. A soldier comes back from the dead to a seaside village. He reminisces on the time lost while he was away, like a sea between his past and the dysfunctional present. Through him we discover a motley of characters: a rag-tag musical band, a man locked up inside an abandoned horse stable, his sister, also the soldier’s lover and who has been bemoaning the loss. An impressionistic view of the intertwined lives of those inhabiting imaginary spaces, with an underpinning of social and political metaphors.
