World Premiere
Harang begins to feel fear because of his father's words that fishes are ancestors of humans.
Where did I come from? This simple, naïve, and fundamental question is suddenly thrown into Great Great Ancestor and forms the center of the film. Confused by the appearance of a fish that insists on being one¡¯s distant ancestor, Harang is shocked to hear from her sick grandmother that she is actually a shark. Eventually, the moonlit walk, which could be a dream or a reality, brings the relationship between Harang and her grandmother closer. The film maintains its unique style until the end, asking women of different generations where ¡°your sea¡± is. [Programmer SON Sinae]
