Doomsday Book
Two acclaimed Korean directors unfurl three unique stories of human self-destruction in the modern high-tech era. In hopes of restoring humane compassion in the insusceptible modern age, the film displays an alternative form of genuine humanity. And thus you are stepping into the world of the future, where a series of unexpected stories awaits you. All these stories originate from the earth. From the very earth you live on.
