DIRECTOR STATEMENT
I always wanted to make a Western, cause under the concept; there are many topics related to humanity that can be discussed. Land or soil has always been one of the major problems that human society needs to face since the drawn of mankind. It has seriously shaped modern society. As a huge fan of Akira Kurosawa, I love films with intriguing stories and fascinating philosophies that promote deep thinking.
By combining these, I made the movie LAND.
