A story for anyone who has ever feared being too visible or completely overlooked. Cherub explores our desire to love and be loved, while questioning which bodies are deemed worthy of such desires. Shot with a deliberately lo-fi approach and framed in a nostalgic 4:3 ratio, the film captures the days and nights of Toronto with a dreamlike quality, serving as the perfect backdrop for Harvey, a protagonist you cannot help but want to hug. This is low-budget filmmaking at its finest—delivering surprisingly tender and nuanced emotions in a way that only "small films" can evoke. (SON Cecile Hyojeong | Translator, Screenwriter)
