Fisher Boy
On a hot summer day, a boy comes home thirsty and drinks up all of his grandfather's water, forcing the boy to leave the house to fetch water. He buys a bottle of water and returns home, but on the way, the water gradually disappears.
[Nam Dong-hyun, Director]
This story began with two images: a large, transparent 2L water bottle in the arms of a small child, and a tadpole inside the bottle. I wanted to tell the story of a child's adventure and loss through the journey between these two images.
