COLLECTIVE INVENTION First Look: Stills and Trailer

"Honey, I have something to tell you."

In director Kwon Oh-kwang's Collective Invention journalist Sang-won (Lee Chun-hee) accepts an assignment to investigate an urban legend, the story of a man participated in a pharmaceutical company's clinical trial to earn cash--and transformed into a fish. Sang-won discovers the story is true and tracks down Gu (Lee Kwang-soo), the legendary fish-man, setting off a media frenzy and some fine social satire. Plus, there is a man with a fish head. I don't know about you, but that's all I need.

If you're not such an easy sell, we do have some intriguing stills and the trailer for your pondering pleasure...
