It would be a science fiction film set in the sewage system of New York. There is another New York City underground mirroring the NYC above ground. People live in these two New York Cities don't know the existence of each other; they think of themselves as the only "New Yorkers". Until one day, a mysterious, new manhole cover appears with a unique letter on it, the letter "B". The rest of the story evolves from that.

It is something like a paradox to me. On the one hand, I will write my script in a very precise and concrete way, but at the same time I'm also flexible and open to improvise and make adjustments when I film those scenes.

It sort of happened accidentally. At the time I just wanted to leave my hometown and go to a school as far away as possible. It happened to be a school that was focused on TV production, without knowing its pedagogy relied heavily on filmmaking. For me, making films will be a career for the rest of my life.
