Yellow Door: '90s Lo-fi Film Club Yellow Door: ’90s Lo-fi Film Club

This is a documentary on a Korean film club that started and ended in the 1990s.

Liked the interviews with the people who were passionate about films! Would love to see some of the films featured in the documentary such as "Nostalgia" by Tarkovsky and "Looking for Paradise" by Bong Joon Ho! The door reminds me of a similar door in the Doraemon comics where we can go anywhere in the world!

Apollo 10½: A Space Age Childhood

The story is about life in Houston during the late 1960s when space travel was the fashionable thing to talk about.

Liked the glimpse into the type of games people played, the music people listened to and the television shows people watched back then! Didn't find that it was believable that a small child can land on the moon by himself within the period of a holiday camp though.

The Rat Catcher

The story is about a rat catcher who catches rats in very creative ways.

Thought the shows that the rat catcher put on at the end were less impressive than actually catching a rat in real life! The rats were handicapped by being not able to move around freely!

Poison

The story is about a man who had to ask for help as he had a poisonous snake sleeping on his belly.

Quite amazed that the man could stay still for so long! I might have gone for the flick the blanket suggestion!

The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar

The story is about how a rich spoilt man decided to do good deeds by building hospitals and orphanages around the world anonymously.

Thought it was too unbelievable for someone to see something blindfolded! The idea that a person's outlook in life could be changed through hard work is quite positive though!

The Swan

The story is about the interaction between a young boy and two bullies that happened many years ago.

Liked the tense moments when the protagonist was tied down to the railway track and the extraordinary events that happened after they encountered the swan!
