Coming up with a short film idea can be daunting enough before you add in equipment like stabilizers, high-tech cameras and complicated lighting. If you find yourself long on vision but short on means, keep reading to see how Korean director Lee Chung Hyun brought a mind-bending story of tragedy, love and time travel to life—with nothing more than a Galaxy S20 Series and some stuff he had on hand.


This is a great moment for content creators.
With the amount of filmmaking technology baked into Galaxy devices these days, there’s never been a better time to launch an idea for the screen. Like so much else in the digital revolution, the tools of creating a visual story have been massively democratized. More can be accomplished today with a simple mobile device than professional filmmakers with entire studios behind them could do generations ago, and the freedom gained by not being weighed down by expensive cameras and elaborate tech translates to new, fresh takes on films.


The visionary
Thirty-year-old director Lee Chung Hyun is already making a name for himself in Korea. He received acclaim in 2015 for his short film Bargain, and his next film, Call, is set to debut in 2020. Lee partnered with Yong Film—the production company behind Believer and Park Chan Wook’s The Handmaiden—for this next project. Offered a Galaxy S20 Ultra and an invitation to make whatever short film he wanted, Lee jumped at the chance to show what’s possible when Galaxy technology is put in the hands of great storytellers—and the results are amazing.
