Night Fishing (2011)

Paranmanjang

The real title of this 33 minutes long movie is not "Night Fishing" but Paranmanjang, meaning "full of big changes and big troubles". This phrase is often used to convey a sense of overcoming hardships or experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions and that is what this movie tries to do. We have a fisherman who goes to night fishing, as the english title suggest, but what follows is a interesting turn of events filled with mysticism and emotion.

One word I could use to describe this movie is: dramatic. The music and the songs are loud and dramatic, actors are dramatic, and even the camera is dramatic. At the beginning I was disappointed with the quality of the image because the movie is filmed with a phone (iPhone 4) but at the end the shakiness and obscurity of video helps to add to the dramatic effect.
