'Planet Of Snail' On Pay Per View

 

South Korean director Yi Seung-Jun's ('Children Of God') mesmerising documentary 'Planet Of Snail' is now available to watch through pay per view. The film follows the life of Young-Chan, an accomplished young poet who has struggled with life since going both deaf and blind during childhood.

Synopsis

Young-Chan is deaf and blind. He learned to speak when he was very young, but soon after lost his sight and hearing. He lives with his wife, Soon-Ho, who is his soul mate, an inseparable part of his life, and a window to the outside world. Young-Chan and Soon-Ho communicate through finger braille, a unique form of touch-based sign language in which words are tapped out on each other's hands. They rely on one another completely. However, Young-Chan must be able to survive on his own. One day, as Soon-Ho waits anxiously at home, Young-Chan embarks on the biggest adventure of his life.

Poster and trailer are below, and you can watch the film now through iTunes or Dogwoof.TV.
