Hana, who works as a labourer in a food processing plant, toils hard in keeping with the company’s motto: “Just keep working.” After finishing a gruelling day’s work, she returns home to the small apartment where her grandmother is sleeping. Even though the house is cramped and dark and has mould growing on the walls, it seems to be the only thing that matters to Hana. Bug is a short film that examines the harsh economic reality facing the younger generation of today and uses fantasy as a device to comment on their circumstances.
