Blessedness: Monsters and Specters

Seongsim, Eunsu, and Seongcheol are helpless beings in front of reality. Seongsim and Eunsu are gay lovers rejected by society and their love for each other has failed. Actor Seongcheol experiences the life of Spinoza as he plays the role of Spinoza who was expelled and labeled as a heretic in the Jewish community and an atheist Jew among Christians. This film connects Spinoza of the 17th century with sexual minorities of the modern times and seeks the true path of ‘freedom’.
