Sahra ASADOLLAHI
World Premiere
There is a girl who has dreamed of acting since childhood, like a horse that wants to be first in all competitions. She enters the film office for an audition, but¡¦.
A woman auditions for a movie. As she talks about her experience charmingly, the directory gradually develops a liking and confidence toward her. The contract is submitted at the final stage of casting, but somehow things get awkward. Spasm is a one-take film composed of dialogues of various sentiments from aspiring actors. Director Sahra Asadollahi took on the role of an actor who overwhelms the people beyond the camera with a strong sense of immersion. In a short running time, the film candidly depicts the poor conditions of the film industry and how female actors with children are treated. The film leaves pleasant and sharp, but with a somewhat bitter aftertaste. [SONG Hyojoung]
