Overview
"Monsters Never Came is a 15-minute short film mockumentary sci-fi. In a slow and peaceful pace, the camera becomes an objective spectator to observe the life of the protagonist, Wang Yi. By capturing the process of the disappearance of Wang Yi's superpower and his attempts to keep the last bit of his powers, the short film reflects the various kind of gains and losses in the process of a person's growing up." -- Abstract
