Synopsis

The shamans are considered in Korean society that they are extraordinary as they bridge the gap between the gods and humans with their psychic talents.
The shamans are not situated on both sides. They are not ordinary people as well as they are not gods. They usually feel lonely and confused at the same time because they feel distant from both the spirits and ordinary people.

Director's Comment

This film is about a shaman in South Korea. Korean shamanism has a long history as a folk belief and the shamans are a cultural heritage as themselves. Shamans are chosen by gods which is irresistible and they become mediators between the mystic and the mundane, and the living and the dead. I would like to introduce about their life which situated between gods and humans through this film. This film focuses on their extraordinary position based on their testimonies.
