Knocking on the Door of a Fortress(2024)

In 1999 A.D., a legend of a zombie dug out of an ancient tomb spreads through a small town in Sichuan. A boy who accidentally becomes incontinent during swimming lessons is labeled a “little zombie” and subjected to collective humiliation. Instead of doing him justice, his teachers attributed it to his “unlikability”. Years later, he entered the entertainment industry as an actor, and his teacher died of blood cancer. In a dream, he meets his teacher, who wants to reconcile with him, but he is obsessed with how to become as “likeable” as his teacher asked him to be. With this in mind, he approaches some entertainment stars. It turns out that all of them live with their own scars, and not all of their hatred can be found in themselves. One of the stars teaches the man a spell that allows him to travel through time and space, to fight against the past, to be brave when courage is needed.

GHOOR(2025)

film about the situation of that Girls who face evil eyes daily on way. “Not every battle is fought with weapons; some are fought with eyes… and silence.” This film is a raw, unflinching portrayal of the everyday battles women face in a society where their existence is constantly scanned, judged, and violated by predatory stares. From streets to buses, offices to parks — no place feels truly safe. It’s a story of unseen wounds, silent fears, and a world where public spaces still belong to the audacity of shameless eyes. But in the darkness of this cruelty… rise a few hands. Hands that shield, voices that speak, and gazes that stand as a wall of dignity. This isn’t just a film — it’s a voice for those countless unspoken stories buried in the hearts of women. A message that must be seen, heard, and felt.
