Women of Korea
The "Women of Korea" program is a meeting with unique heroines of the new Korean cinema which fascinates and surprises audiences all around the world with its original form and insightful observations of the contemporary reality. It includes films with perfect frames and strikingly masterful action scenes, like "Man on High Heels," contagiously optimistic stories about following your passion, like "Comrade Kim Goes Flying," and titles diving into an in-depth debate on relationships and life dilemmas, like "Yourself and Yours." The cycle is a peek into the world of women defying conventions and the expectations of society, which is eager to impose on them the roles of perfect corporate employees or consumers following the scripts of commercials. It is also an interesting glimpse at today's Korea – a constantly changing country that keeps searching for its identity.
Permanent library
The year-round library of the platform includes films by authors regularly returning to international festivals, searching for original forms of film expression. Masters of cinema from Thailand, Indonesia or Bhutan create unique stories, negotiating various film conventions and styles. The Buddhist crime story "Honeygiver Among the Dogs," a female western "Marlina the Murder in Fours Acts" or the psychedelic surf cinema "Apocalypse Child" allow you to experience intense emotions, and provide and opportunity for contemplation and aesthetic elation.
