Episode 7.Take the umbrella!
The U.S.A which gets the strongest power after the collapse of the Soviet Union is going to build the strongest tower on earth. Its Tower of Babel requires nuclear weapons as well as Missile Defense System to rule the whole world. And it does not hesitate to endow its nuclear submarines to Korea for Missile Defense System."

" The Empire longs for absolute power. Absolute power now belongs to U.S.A, which is going to rule the world with its physical force. What are we supposed to do? What is to be done? Act with knowledge! We cant defeat the empire with paying or inactive objections. We have got to know what is going on in reality first and then act quickly! Therefore to get information is the first step to struggle against the cunning beast, The Empire.

The omnibus project The Empire, one feature film, consists of 7 episodes which are created each by 7 independent film makers, who differ from one another in how they speak, but share one issue-what is the empire? In the film, The Empire, they speak of globalization in Neo-Liberalism, photography for wedding, circulation of power, family, school, war, migrant workers, Missile Defense System, and even nuclear to depict how violence and oppression are produced by the power that still works simultaneously in both daily life and the whole world. The Empire is everywhere. It is not far away from here but even in my body. And it is delicately entangled in our life and sometimes completely invisible. In short, it is desultory, but unique."
