Synopsis

​ George Jones invites country music's rising star, Troy Brooks, to accompany him to a small town in Nashville on the night before he was cryopreserved in 1994.

Program Note

​ In 1994, a young country musician named Troyal Brux is a rising star, selling better than Madonna and Michael Jackson. He arrives in Nashville with excitement, having been invited by his idol, George Jones, the godfather of country music. Coincidentally, George Jones is scheduled to be cryogenically frozen the very next day. Mickey Reece, known for his distinctive filmmaking style and having produced 25 feature films over a decade, captures his own unique artistic ambition on a stunning black-and-white screen. The film serves as an allegory that explores one's own legacy, blending elements of surrealism, absurdity, and genuine humor. (Jo Ji-hoon)
