Artist’s Statement
This film production cost only $500. I made reference to the film Tetsuko. Since the budget was too low and I didn’t have enough funds to buy props, I made the props myself and used black and white display to cover up the flaws. The props seemed to be more real and could be perceived as a B-movie. It could also give the audience a sense of pressure and blast.
