The DGK PLUS M Award is presented to a Korean film in the Vision section. The winner is awarded a cash prize of KRW 5,000,000, sponsored by Directors Guild of Korea and PLUS M.
It is a masterful film that explores the pain of loss with delicate sophistication. The director’s extraordinary vision and unyielding dedication—taking on from screenwriting and directing to cinematography, lighting, and editing—are remarkable. As a fellow filmmaker, I hold the utmost respect for such relentless passion, and all jury members are truly delighted to present this award with our unanimous support.
