Director's notes
Nowadays, holding and playing smartphones has become a habit and is something that everyone must carry, but what happens if your smartphone runs out of battery and there is no place to charge it or it is even damaged? And what I see today is that people are worried about a situation where if they can't play their smartphone as if they can't do anything, and if they don't hold their smartphone, the world feels empty. That's what's happening in people's lives today, smartphones and social media seem to be their energy to live life, and this phenomenon is what I want to bring up to be my Experimental Film work entitled "Phonedemic".
