Critical response

Andrew Chan of the Film Critics Circle of Australia writes, "To call Moebius daring is actually an understatement, as it is more than that, it is a film that will haunt you, lingers with you and perhaps disturb you till you never think about it again".[7]

Release

The film screened in April 2014 at the Stanley Film Festival and in November 2014 at the London Korean Film Festival.
