HI-FIVE (koreanische OmeU) // Fantasy Filmfest // Abschlussfilm

In the organizer's words:

HI-FIVE - Closing film

A moment ago she was lying in a hospital bed, now the teenager Wan-seo is jumping over skyscrapers. Yes, this heart transplant has worked wonders! The reclusive Ji-seong also has supernatural powers after a lung transplant: he simply blows everything away. They soon meet three other people who are particularly well-suited to organ donation: Ki-dong (new cornea) controls electromagnetic waves, Yak-sun (liver) regenerates injured people by laying hands on them and Sun-nyeo (kidney) is able to transfer the abilities of others. With great power comes great responsibility - with combined power even greater: the five join forces, because together their strength must be limitless! Especially as they have another hunch: Where there are superheroes ... there is also a supervillain who wants to get at them! At least there is a power-hungry, millennia-old sect, and its god Young-chun has just been reborn and is planning to take over the world.

soundtrack: HI-FIVE swirls pop and rock classics by Sister Sledge, Rick Astley, Snap!, Smashing Pumpkins or Paul Anka just as much as the movie catapults its wild arsenal of characters into a truly epic final battle.

Just moments ago, young Wan-seo was lying in a hospital bed - now she's leaping over skyscrapers. Jiseong, too, has gained supernatural powers after a lung transplant: he can easily blow everything away. But they're not alone. If they can find the others, their combined power would be immense! Of course, where there are superheroes, a supervillain isn't far behind. That's cult guru Young-chun, who has just been reborn and plans to take over the world. Uniting a bunch of absurd and colorful characters, this extravagant superhero blast brings back memories of KUNG FU HUSTLE!
