The Realm of Deepest Knowing

Seunghee Kim
South Korea, 2017, 3 min.


One digs beneath the surface of the other to reach the deepest place of his heart during struggles. It lightens up the darkness. They fulfill one another within the sense of oneness.

Director's Statement

Everyone goes through hard times at some points in their life. They sometimes allow sorrow and grief which eat them up from the inside. They get weighed down and don't have the strength to get back up on their own. At that time the people who know and understand them on a deep level can save their souls. They walk hand in hand, stumble, pick each other up and walk hand in hand over and over again on the path of life. This film visualizes the process of spiritual deep connection in love by implication.
