Finding My Gundam

About This Movie

Finding My Gundam is an intriguing exploration of isolation and passion. It follows Hyun-dong, a hikikomori whose life revolves around his Gundam models. The atmosphere is heavy, yet there's a certain warmth in the way he interacts with his creations. The pacing feels deliberate, almost meditative, as we watch his internal struggles unfold. The film dives deep into themes of escapism and the human connection—or lack thereof. The performances are subtle but impactful, particularly Hyun-dong's quiet intensity. The practical effects used in assembling the models are impressive, offering a tactile sense of his obsession. It’s a unique narrative that portrays both the beauty and the burden of fandom in a refreshing light.
