Synopsis

Life! Camera Action... is an inspiring story of Reina, who sets off to pursue a career in filmmaking without the consent of her parents. She is threatened to be disowned if she insists on her choice instead of doing what usually is the norm – become a doctor, engineer or an architect. At the center of this family drama, Reina is faced with a hard decision: She must give up her dreams to keep her parents happy or go against their wishes and follow her own path.
