Synopsis
“How would I define it? It seemed terrifying and horrific…”

“I am Doha, Juahn, Hwawol.”
In this nonfiction film, I can be anything I want and create any story I like. In an online open-world setup based on fantasy stories, I make new friends. We put together an on-line community titled ‘E.S.P.’ and finally embark upon an adventure.
Going back and forth between ‘Lysan City’, ‘Alstroemeria’, and ‘Asua’, the stories we create present many twists and turns.
Director's Note
The film title ′E.S.P.′ is short for ‘Extrasensory Perception’. We will film three fantasy stories which were created by ten teenagers taking part in an online role-playing game over a year. E.S.P. will be a powerful depiction of the minds and lives of real teens, offering a new kind of perception.
