A new 20-minute movie “Shot on iPhone” entitled “Life is But a Dream” uses the iPhone 13 Pro to tell a fantastic story of a undertaker who wants to properly save his village.
The story begins as the undertaker enters a cemetery. He steals wood from an abandoned tomb to make a coffin for White Martin, the fallen savior of his village. However, in doing so, he awakens the ghost of an ancient warrior who does not want to hand over his coffin.
Apple commissioned the film from Park Chan-wook, an internationally acclaimed director best known for films such as “The Handmaiden” and “Oldboy.”
The film lasts a little less than 20 minutes and is full of Park’s visual sense. It has surreal, dreamy elements and action-packed martial arts scenes.
To celebrate Chinese New Year, Apple released a short film entitled “The Comeback” in January. The film tells the story of a young man who returns home from a filming after an injury. He returns home and, with his father, starts making a science fiction movie with his friends and family and makes that comeback.
In November, Apple shared how it launched “Shot on iPhone” as a ridiculously simple idea inspired by how real iPhone users used their iPhones.
