Based on a true story, Bloodless is a VR documentary about the murder of a Korean sex worker by a US soldier in 1992. The film opens to a decrepit residential neighborhood in Dongducheon where the US military has been stationed since the Korean War. Amidst the flashing neon lights, clubs, and bars, a woman takes fragile steps along the streets. She leads the audience into darker and narrower alleyways. Moments later, the audience is now in a shabby motel room. Scattered clothes and traces of violence are all around. Over the course of the next three minutes, the audience experiences the space in which a woman was murdered by a US soldier. This film transforms the controversial issue of US troop crimes into a personal and emotional experience while introducing textual history to the sensory realm of virtual reality. less
