Cobweb
In 1970s Korea, when both art and dreams are censored, a film director dreams of a masterpiece.
A meta-cinematic comedy-drama about artistic obsession and creative resistance in a repressive 1970s Korea, where a director's vision clashes with censorship, ego, and institutional chaos.
In the 1970s, Director Kim is obsessed by the desire to re-shoot the ending of his completed film Cobweb, but chaos and turmoil grip the set with interference from the censorship authorities, and the complaints of actors and producers who can't understand the re-written ending. Will Kim be able to find a way through this chaos to fulfill his artistic ambitions and complete his masterpiece?
