My Spaceship
나의 우주선
SANADA Kohei | Japan | 2025 | 7min | G
Synopsis
In a vacant lot filled with garbage lies an abandoned old spacesuit. A young boy, unable to fit in with the other children around him, puts on its helmet. What he sees through it is a world far beyond this one. A city submerged beneath the sea, futuristic landscapes, endless horizons, outer space — alone, the boy journeys through these imagined worlds. But eventually, his small universe is shattered without mercy.
