OMNISCIENT READER: THE PROPHECY (koreanische OmeU) // Fantasy Filmfest

In the organizer's words:

OMNISCIENT READER: THE PROPHECY

Bridges collapse, sea monsters rise from the floods, demons appear before the eyes of stunned subway passengers: the world is plunged into chaos when god-like, extraterrestrial beings decide to punish humanity for its misdeeds. Only the young Dokja understands what's happening. Because he has already read all this in a novel, which is now apparently becoming reality. Will he be able to change history - and prevent the apocalypse?

A spectacular sci-fi fantasy blockbuster with disaster movie references: Who better to do it than South Korea? Kim Byong-woo's (THE ATTACK) action epic is the film adaptation of the web novel of the same name, which became a mega-bestseller with well over twenty million views: with a myriad of hideous monsters, colorful heroes and massive MMORPG vibes. Visually stunning popcorn cinema at its most imaginative!
