THE SEED RELEASE

 

THE SEED
Directed by Joseph Hahn
Shorts International is proud to present THE SEED, directed by Linkin Park's DJ Joseph Hahn. Hahn, whose directorial credits include such award-winning videos as Linkin Park’s “In The End” (2002’s VMA “Video of the Year” winner) and “Somewhere I Belong” (2003’s VMA “Best Rock Video” winner), as well as music clips for Xzibit, Story Of The Year and Alkaline Trio, as well as Linkin Park's videos for the smash hits “What I’ve Done,” “Bleed It Out” and “Shadow of the Day” off their double-platinum-selling Minutes to Midnight album.

THE SEED tells the story of Sung, portrayed by Will Yun Lee (Torque, Elektra, Die Another Day, “CSI,” “Bionic Woman”), a homeless veteran losing his mind on the banks of the L.A. River. Pursued by unseen forces, fighting unseen foes, Sung is ostensibly “just another lunatic.” But as his invisible war continues under bridges and in tunnels, the viewer is taken deeper into his nightmare - into a nightmare of conspiracy, cloaking and the government's unseen war. Sung struggles to fight through what is visible to him, yet invisible to the world around him.
