Synopsis


Symphony portrays a sentient creature trying to escape from a reality of being swept away and assimilated into the mainstream, regardless of its own will. The subject of this abstractedly crafted animation applies to anything that struggles to be free. It can be a phenomenon occurring deep within the mind, or an individual confronting the standardised masses. There is no concrete answer to these questions; the only role I play is to showcase reality. (Erick Oh)
