Inching Toward Yeolha

Based on the book ‘열하일기만보 by 배삼식’ (INCHING TOWARDS YEOLHA by Pai Sam-Shik)
Translation by Walter Byongsok Chon
Directed by Ji Won Jeon

Where is this unbearable itching coming from?

Inspired by 18th-century Korean philosopher Yeon-Ahm’s quest for a new perspective that would move forward a nation, Inching Toward Yeolha is a dark, absurd comedy about a secluded village in Central Asia desperate to explore a new world while clutching tightly to the past.
