Director Tribeny Rai has presented her new film project, titled A Chronicle of Minor Things, at the Asian Project Market during the Busan International Film Festival. Variety Film and Variety both reported that the project is being pitched at the market, which operates within the festival's Asian Contents and Film Market. [1][2]

The drama centers on a territorial dispute between two villages following the death of a 15-year-old girl, according to Variety Film. The girl is found hanging from a tree at daybreak. A quarrel arises over local jurisdiction before her body is retrieved because the tree is rooted in one village while its branch extends over another. [1]

Rai previously directed Shape of Momo, which won an award at the Busan festival, Variety Film reported. FTMQ Books reported earlier that the Asian Project Market also features other new feature projects, including actor and director Ryu Hyunkyung's dark comedy Dog Fight, which is produced by Kim Sehun. Screen Daily reported that the broader Asian Contents and Film Market is expanding its focus this year to include artificial intelligence and microdramas. [1][3][4]
