The Sprayer

A Note from the Filmmakers

The Sprayer is the story of a dystopian city where it is forbidden to grow any kind of flowers and plants, and the army of sprayers protect this ban with quasi-robot clothes, suppress and arrest people who violate it, and destroy plants with their special gas, but in At this time, one of these soldiers changes his path from destruction to protection by getting to know some saplings through a little boy. When this idea came to my mind 12 years ago, it seemed a bit far-fetched and strange and pessimistic that one day there would be such hostility towards the existence of plants. But today, in 2022, after events such as the pandemic, drying up of rivers, climate change, and the destruction of forests, etc., unfortunately, this horrible event is becoming more and more like a reality. Of course, with all the blackness and pessimism in the movie, I think even destroying the plant is more bitter than burning the book At the end of the film, with the scene of a plant sprouting at the foot of the statue of the sprayer leader, one can hope that maybe there is still a path to salvation and hope, even though it is small! There are people who are trying to save lives, but the sprayers are also serious about destruction! Hoping for a world full of peace for all living beings on the planet
