One Thousand and One Attempts to Be an Ocean <\/h2>\n

WANG Yuyan \/ digital \/ 12min. \/ 2021 <\/h3>\n

While the sea is being painted on a canvass, suddenly the picture rushes into a series of images. Giant waves swarming the shore, people playing in swim rings, packed seawater baths, collapsing icebergs. These images are lifted from \u201csatisfying videos\u201d on the Internet. Is this praise or criticism of a world with information overload?<\/p>\n

Sitting at a low table, a man stares at the pot in front of him. His body affected by the bubbles that finally emerge, He drowns in a hallucination of being chased by a one-armed girl. The hallucination of a character depicted with rotoscoping develops with an unexpected shift to a 3D CG space. This is a work of animation with a high degree of experimentality. \u201cKaigan (Crab eyes)\u201d refers to water boiling in a pot; the tiny bubbles that form resemble the eyes of a crab.<\/p>\n

\u201cHonekami\u201d \u2012 a ritual to mourn the dead by eating bones a bit of ash.

Photographs of the democratization movement in the 1980s were discovered in the warehouse of the Korea Democracy Foundation. The filmmaker was asked to restore damaged photographs, and a sense of \u201cbeing after\u201d the generation of democratization deepened. An impassioned work that asks where the power to make history visible lies through materials such as archival video and interviews. It is also valuable film in understanding the political situation in South Korea today.<\/p>\n
