About

Monster Ogre Project is a 40-minute experimental stop-motion film blending handcrafted puppetry and mixed media drawn from Korean and Dominican folklore. The film navigates spaces of cultural dislocation and transformation, using surreal and tactile animation to evoke the fragile boundaries between otherness and belonging. It offers a haunting, immersive reflection on the diasporic experience, inviting contemplation rather than spectacle.
