The work ‘Episode 4. The Poets of Dead Echoes : Requiem’ is the Requiem plays a role similar to 'Dalgu Sori',the traditional Korean funeral song in episode 2, unfolding Mileyh’s(the protagonist) narrative in the context of her life in Germany. The two works share a similar plot and structure, but with subtle changes in dialogue and scenes, so that when screened simultaneously they interact like vocies in a musical canon
This Film unfolds as a three-part video structured through a speculative dialogue between mileyh and hypercat—a cloned, posthuman feline suspended between memory, projection, and artificial life. Beginning with the measurable delay of an echo, the work frames distance as both acoustic fact and emotional condition.
Across transmissions, confessions, and lullabies, the narrative moves through illness, cloning, euthanasia, and maternal grief, questioning whether love is the act of letting go or the refusal to do so. Bodies disappear, graves dissolve, and what remains becomes uncertain—an afterimage, a signal, a repetition.
Blurring the boundaries between the organic and the mediated, the film reflects on the human desire to preserve what is destined to vanish, asking what persists after loss: the body, the copy, or only an echo.
