Traversing the quiet fields of rural South Korea, through to the city lights of central Tokyo, “MACHINA” charts the story of a former K-Pop idol who turned her back on the factory-like rigours of the mainstream music industry to pursue her passions as an independent electronic music artist.

The 12-minute documentary eschews a conventionally linear narrative in favour of an ethereal bricolage that profiles Yeohee Kim, a.k.a. machìna, and her career to-date, representing the unique layers of places and experiences that can be heard in her current music.
