POWERFUL MESSAGE



Japanese culture is deeply rooted into the nature and the bonds between the people and flora and fauna of the land of the rising sun is very strong.

„Princess Mononoke” brings us one of those ecological stories about the extinction of ancient animal Gods in the wake of industrial revolution in Japan. All of the possible characters will be present, from super heroes to samurai and all of them will be overshadowed by the Deer God and his strength. Script will be overplayed and periodically drowned into random and bizarre events, but that fact will not diminish the powerful message to the generation that will inherit the Earth after ours.

„Princess Mononoke” deals with an everlasting subject in a traditional Japanese way.

SLOW BURNER



Every kingdom periodically flushes a madman at its helm and movies dealing with his/her actions can be very powerful. Especially when confronted with the common folk or, like in „The king and the clown”, a pair of satirical clowns.

All the perverted ideas and relations that will be derived from that concept will be laid out in a fine manner, followed by some truly convincing roles (Joon-Gi Lee). The symbolism of the final clashes will be hightened by a seamless transition to a pure Korean folk tale it is based on.

„The king and the clown” is one good Korean folk tale developed for the silver screen.
