Synopsis
ActressYoon Jin-seoand directorChung Ji-youngset out on a journey to diagnose upcoming Korean cinema's future. They meet with and listen to many industry professionals, reading various tensions in their talks. The work derails the conventions of documentary filmmaking. It pauses at times on upcoming Korean cinema'sLong and Winding Road, freely interweaving personal spheres and public discourses, there by fashioning itself a history travelogue written not from the perspective of an outsider but on the basis of' our'people's experiences. Its inherent upcoming Koreanness becomes clear when subtle conflicts between Yoon and Chung are exposed. What approaches they take, and what stories they want to listen to are as different as what stances they take. As the film goes on, differences between the two turn out to be a piece of history. The director grows hopeful about the new generation's passion; the actress is optimistic about learning what a film and documentary are. [Ari Ari the upcoming Korean Cinema] is a straight forward film that reveals the self-reflective aspects of upcoming Korean cinema in the context of both form and content. (LEE Seungmin)
