SYNOPSIS
In his Mangwon-dong basement art studio, a media artist SONG Hojun dreams of making a satellite and shooting it out to space. He wants to make his dream real through OSSI (Open Source Satellite Initiative) movement. He tries to build a DIY satellite, and to sell 10,000 T-shirts for the 100 million won budget. His seemingly reckless and utterly ambitious project begins. Would his dream become real?
DIRECTING INTENTION
For the sake of all people who spend their nights for their creative work……. I’m not sure if my film could be any hope to them, but it’s significant if it could be a comfort. I wish my film could be a comfort to those who try to launch a satellite or not.
