A devout Christian, Yoo Han, feels a desire against the "Christian" `doctrine´ towards Joo Won, a newcomer at the congregation. And alone Won´s appearance got him against his homophobic indoctrination intrigued. Therefore he is eagerly praying to cover his nature and tries to deny the nature and sexual desire ... in vain! Han but can´t stop looking at Won.

"The story began with the question of how far human desire can be controlled under intense religious beliefs and what the believers could look like when dominated by a desire that is contrary to doctrine."

I will give some facts. as a historian.

The bible, the fairy book, started to be written by the Jees in their exile in Babylon, where they copy pasted oringinal Sumerian and Babylonian texts, not even religious ones and created the scripture we know as Thora - the Old Book. The Genesis alone is 95% such a copy paste. Adam and Eve and the paradise is the original Sumerian storytelling about the beginning of civilisation somewhere at a sunken coast on the Arabian Peninsular. The Great Flood and Abraham is the story of the dramatic changes with the end of the ice age and the melting of the massive iceshields. And the worst for devoted "christians" is the Gilgamesh Epos, which is as well integrated into the book Genesis. That story is f.e. including gay sex between Gilgamesh and his friend Enkidu ... SHREEK! Later implemented anti gay passages are 1st some anti greek text passages after the conquering of Palestine by Alexander the Great. And then this totally misinterpreted and translated passage "a man should not lie by man like a woman" the original says "a man should not lie with a bioy like a woman" IT IS FORBIDDING CHILD ABUSE / SEX!

The English best in denying all nature and natural made it homophobic in the James Bibele translation ... despite James being gay as hell ... with several courtiers being his lovers.

With the English the Catholic into the same idiotic doctrine latest in 19th century when the English "culture" dominated the world from Asia around the world back into Europe.

This stance is based in the original development of Protestantism in the beginning age of Renaissance, where the Homo Sapiens was placed in the center and no öonger the god figure, like in Medieval times. They had been too ultra conservative and wanted to stay in the darkness of Merdieval times. Something we see again actually with the Evangicals who fight against Human Rights everywhere, here they have set their feet.

The congregation or "church" of Han is obviously such an Evangecal nature denying assembly ... These brainwashing assemblies push their victims into isolation and lonelyness to be 100% subjected to the hate doctrine they preach. Alone the homophobia these promote or that Human Rights violating Conversion "therapy". It´s plain breaking a mind and life threatening and mentalhealth- and bodyharming!
Han sits in his sterile house and reading in this fairybook seeking sence for his life ... and then desire strucks in form of Won. Near the end Han is dressed in black, indicating his "sinming" ... Oh my ... what an arrogance of anybody slaming/forbidding love. "Very `christian´". "I am the lord, who makes you holy" Han prays ... in vain, he allready had sinned. Prayer, prayer against his nature ... Han ends in an darkened "church" room prays for solace against his lonelyness which this imagined figure can´t give. Such terrorised figures like Han are the next suicidal vistims, despite their "strong beliefs".

The film tells what religion is is: in the last end a life threatening, deeply depend and insecure making cult which is denying everything connecting with nature and real love ... Holding up the companies brand name but not able to get the soulö into is a fake.

And before one "christian" may try to missiomnary me ... I am atheist and humanist and believe in science , not fairy tales and imagined boyfriends.
