The Great Flight

The Song of Trees follows the life of an 88-year-old woman who has devoted herself to planting one million trees in the forests of Nicaragua. Believing that every tree has its own language, she lives by the rhythm of the forest, planting trees "to give oxygen back to the Earth." Rather than approaching the climate crisis through abstract arguments, the film reveals how one person's quiet commitment can reconnect humanity with nature. A deeply moving documentary that reminds us planting trees is ultimately an act of planting the future.

As the historical community regards the marriage voyage of the 'Indian Princess, Heo Hwang Ok' 2,000 years ago as a myth or a legend, the roots of 8 million descendants, including the Kim and Heo clans in Gimhae are always shaken, and the beginning of Gaya Buddhism as well as the history of Gaya are pushed back hundreds of years. The documentary traces the three-day honeymoon record of 'Indian Princess Heo Hwang Ok' in the Memorabilia of the Three Kingdoms, drawing a unique historical reality in a scientific way that no one has predicted or attempted to try before.

What is the future he dreamt of back in his home, carrying out biological agricultural technology?

In the serene embrace of sacred nature, trivial thoughts dissolve away. A profound silence engulfs the mind, stifling even the breath. It is the rediscovery of a lost emotion—'awe,' flowing like a stream. A mother, mourning the loss of her only son, embarks on a daily ritual of mountain hikes. In the ascent, she seeks solace amidst the sacred silence that nature provides. For her, the journey becomes a poignant exploration of the profound and the mundane. A 70-year-old haenyeo (traditional female diver), wise from a life intertwined with the sea, asserts that materiality is both our everyday reality and our path to paradise. Their lives, like the ebb and flow of water, find meaning in the continuous stream. Following the currents, one discovers mountains beneath the sea, whereas within the mountains, the sea continues to flow. Ultimately, the boundaries of the world are revealed to be nonexistent, echoing the profound interconnectedness of all things.
