However long the storm, the sun always shines again in the clouds. Khalil Gibran Phrase very apt to begin to tell you this movie, not that I want to discourage someone with that trite optimism "for a very dark tunnel it will always be a light at the end." Castaway on the Moon is a beautiful film with a romantic comedy stroke tenderly offers a message about loneliness and hope. Very light, funny and innocent, so I suggest that already see blindly without reading more.
The film tells the unique friendship that evolves between two castaways moles. Each in his moon and for different circumstances, strange? A metaphor that in the course of the film we'll see how the point. Two characters that accompanied the brief appearance of other accidental cover the lead role.
He is one of many office in Seoul, with economic problems, a prisoner of the rules and nothing and nobody, apparently this rough patch is not new, tired of losing in life decides to commit suicide by jumping into the river Han , however the current drag it to a small island. "Not even killing is something that can do well? Wrecked, ironically surrounded by modern buildings in the city. The start of a new life? Why not? If anyone knows what he does, who cares, who it affects, who can keep him? Is free. same time a beautiful girl with a mark on the forehead, hikikomori (remember Tokyo! ), confined to her room takes 3 years. 3 years of not seeing another human face or speak to him. It's simple and survive, you only need to follow some convenient rules to keep her sanity, that is: to forge a routine, a series of activities that will help you feel in a world, while food is provided by their parents. Enjoy and most importantly, have control of their lives in such isolation. A little exercise, it is reported that happens in the world, has developed a "therapy" to sleep and calm, is the life, what is life? You can interact with other human beings by the pc, shopping, walking, know, exist for others, be who you want what more could you want? The moon seen at night with your telescope is as real in his life.
And one day ... accidentally their lives intersect, without looking at each other or hear each other, which Internet users at each end of the world forge an intimate bond of friendship, companionship. Somewhere there is someone who knows I exist , the loneliness that shadowed the perfection of life (either on an island or in a room) begins to fade. And then the picture is never so dark, because there are two tools which dispenses with the pleasure of life, to exist, the first we create it ourselves: the hope, the second can be difficult: the company. And when we refer to the dystopia where the world may become increasingly crowded and yet these people are increasingly alone. But the impossible does not exist and there is always someone. 
This was going to score as context of a society alienated, estranged, sick of modernity and technology (and the best: to dialogue there anything cheaper than we want to sell this reflection, not only is the context not a philosophy, some glimpse of what our reality) . Also, comedy and "romance" I prefer to call tenderness where physical contact are not cohabiting with the proximity of the characters, a magical realism that brings justified unlikely situations, of which we are complicit and agree with this sweet, not cloying dose tenderness and innocence. 
"The final thing I can say? Is accurate. A wonderful picture, light but not ostentatious. The use of the camera is another genius, versatile without being pretentious. Excellent performance, both actors manage to convey credibility. I think it's a great film, creative, magic, where the absurd (the approach of the story is absurd) can be a poem. And curiously, despite what I said a moment ago: we are not bombarded with criticism of society and yet if we can find some very sharp thinking, well, that someone would not hesitate to play injecting a little encouragement. 
What else I can say? Nothing ... except that it has become one of my favorite movies that I recommend widely and was a pleasure to hear the applause when turned on the light. Applause surely people who plan on board and ended up comedian charmed with the sweetness and suffering in times of tragedy. That was almost two hours for nothing is felt, on the contrary! ... It was so quick, appropriate. (By the way, reminded me a little I'm a Cyborg in the scene where it rises. Bonita.)

'm an ugly duckling ... who became a swan instead cockroach ... Only an ugly duckling.
*** I have a hobby, taking pictures of the moon. I love taking pictures of the moon ... because there is nobody there ... When no one is impossible to feel alone. ***
For 20 minutes a year ... the world is like the solitary moon. You feel ... lighter with 1 / 6 of gravity, like the moon. I want the world to stay that way. So life could be 1 / 6 lighter ...
An idyllic development in nearly two hours of intense show us the loneliness, love, friendship, survival, hope, where in this life so vanal we forget the little things, those with a little of faith can make us dream. Laughter, nostalgia, tragedy, a film that commends us to feel, to enjoy, experience and desire with the characters.
