Trailer:
What is dream? What is real life? It's not a simple movie that showing dream was too lovely, and the main character would wanna keep tracing back in dream to see how it going on. The twist happened that the dream was also the reality of its childhood life. And it is very confusing that he won the lottery in dream, but he really did get those money in real life. It's all mixing up, dream and the reality. Even his wife entered his dream too!
I like the monologue by the director saying in the front of the movie; such as,
"it become a paper-cut animation becuz we are lack of money."
"It's a comedy. However, you would find nothing to laugh along the movie.":))
