    Abstract: "Rechercher les provenances coloniales" est une version légèrement abrégée du rapport final du projet de recherche sur les provenances des collections provenant du Togo sous la domination coloniale allemande, qui se trouvent aujourd'hui dans les musées des Staatlichen Ethnographischen Sammlungen Sachsen (Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden). Le projet, soutenu par le Deutsches Zentrum Kulturgutverluste, était centré sur un ensemble de 700 "objets" et photographies qui ont été achetés ou donnés au Museum für Völkerkunde Dresden et au GRASSI Museum für Völkerkunde zu Leipzig entre 1899 et 1939. Le projet s'est penché sur les histoires de leur appropriation, en lien avec les activités des membres de la police coloniale allemande, des scientifiques, des commerçants et des fonctionnaires coloniaux au Togo sous la domination coloniale allemande de 1884 à 1914. Les acteurs coloniaux en question sont Adolf Diehl, Hans Gruner, Harry Grunitzky, Ernst F. Gütschow, Oskar Marx, Valentin von Massow, Adam Mischlich et Gaston Thierry. Ceux-ci agissaient dans le cadre du contexte d'injustice coloniale, marqué par des expéditions d'annexion, des guerres de conquête ainsi que par le prosélytisme et l'appropriation de biens culturels. Les résultats de la recherche sont publiés dans la Online Collection des Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden et, dans une version plus détaillée du rapport final, dans la base de données Proveana du Deutsches Zentrum Kulturgutverluste. Situé dans le domaine plus récent de la recherche postcoloniale sur la provenance des biens, le rapport se veut une contribution à l'étude de l'histoire des musées d'ethnographie et de leurs vastes réseaux dans le contexte colonial. En découvrant les liens étroits entre les musées et le projet d'expansion et de domination coloniale, il souligne également la responsabilité des musées dans le traitement de l'histoire coloniale.
    Abstract: "Researching Colonial Provenances" is a slightly abridged version of the final report of the research project on the provenances of the collections from Togo under German colonial rule, currently in the holdings of the museums of the Staatliche Ethnographische Sammlungen Sachsen (Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden). The project, funded by the German Lost Art Foundation, focused on a collection of 700 "objects" and photographs that were acquired for or donated to the Museum für Völkerkunde Dresden and the GRASSI Museum für Völkerkunde zu Leipzig between 1899 and 1939. The project focused on the stories of their appropriation in connection with the activities of German members of the colonial police force, scientists, traders and colonial officials in Togo under German colonial rule from 1884 to 1914. The colonial actors in question are Adolf Diehl, Hans Gruner, Harry Grunitzky, Ernst F. Gütschow, Oskar Marx, Valentin von Massow, Adam Mischlich and Gaston Thierry. They acted within the context of colonial injustice, which was characterised by annexation expeditions, wars of conquest, missionary work and the appropriation of cultural items. The results of the research are published in the Online Collection of the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden and in a more detailed version of the final report in the Proveana database of the German Lost Art Foundation. Situated in the more recent field of post-colonial provenance research, the report is intended as a contribution to research into the history of ethnological museums and their extensive networks in a colonial context. With its findings on the close connection between museums and the project of colonial expansion and rule, it also emphasises the responsibility that museums have in accounting for their entanglement with colonial history.

    Abstract: Diese Arbeit untersucht das Beziehungsgeflecht zwischen musikalischen kreativen Prozessen, Identitätspolitik und Globalisierung im heutigen Deutschland anhand eines bestimmten Falls: dem Musikwettbewerb "Creole", der seit 2006 in unterschiedlichen Orten von Deutschland stattfindet. Laut Programmtext soll diese Veranstaltung die Kreolisierung der Musikwelt und die Vernetzungen zwischen unterschiedlichen Kulturen und Musikgattungen widerspiegeln. Bei einer genauen Untersuchung des Entstehungs- und Durchführungsprozess erweisen sich aber der Erwartungshorizont und die Erfahrungen der Teilnehmer als komplex und vielschichtig. Statt eine klar gewichtete Realität wiederzugeben, produzieren diese Festivals eine « Weltmusik aus Deutschland » (aus Berlin, aus Nordrhein-Westphalen, Bayern usw.), deren Formen die bestehenden musikalischen Kategorien und Erfahrungsmuster auf der Probe stellen. Die ethnologische Untersuchung dieses Falls ist hier ein Mittel, um im Sinne der histoire croisée (Werner/Zimmermann 2003) einen Einblick in unterschiedliche Aspekte der deutschen Gesellschaft zu gewinnen : als "Einwanderungsland", das zwischen dem Ideal einer pluralistischen Gesellschaft und der Akzentuierung von ethnischen Grenzen hin-und hergerissen wird; als "Musikland", das für sein reiches, klassisches Erbe bekannt ist aber sich auch zu anderen Formen von populärer oder "globaler" Musik öffnet ; als Bundesrepublik, die heute sowohl mit den differenzierten Realitäten in den Ländern als auch mit internationalen Steuerungsinstanzen der Kulturpolitik umgehen muss. So breit der Hintergrund ist, so genau ist hier der Blick auf die konkreten Interaktionsprozesse, um im Sinne einer « dichten Beschreibung » den Enstehungs- und Durchführungsprozess der Festivals in ihren jeweiligen Kontexten zu analysieren, die aufeinander folgenden Auswahletappen von der Ausschreibung bis hin zu den ritualisierten Preisverleihungen zu verfolgen und die Debatten zum „Wert“ der Musik sowie zum Sinn und Zweck der Veranstaltung analysieren zu können.
    Abstract: This work aims to show the relations between musical creation, identity politics and globalization in Germany today taken from one case: the creole competitions, a cycle of festivals leading every two years to a prize for “world music from Germany” (since 2010 “Global Music”). According to its accompanying text, this festival is intended to illustrate the “creolization” of music in Germany. When one investigates the genesis of the project and the mobilization of candidates, partners and experts, it turns out that the expectations are more complex and that these events, rather than illustrating an established reality, create plural versions of a “world music from Germany”. The crux of this work is to explain the tensions between the values which have currency within the intimacy of this professional sector (“die Nische Weltmusik”) and the public perception of the genre, tarnished with suspicion and controversy. This world of music cuts across questions that mark more generally German society today : as an “country of immigrants” (Einwanderungsland) torn between the idealization of cross-fertilization and the fear of diversity, as a “music country” (Musikland) known for the richness of its intellectual heritage, but desirous to promote examples of contemporary music and as a political system divided between local structures and globalized frameworks which define public culture. Just as the background of this work is large, so too the attention given to specific situations has to be precise : to show the organizing frameworks of the contests, the various criteria taken into account by the juries in their deliberations and the debates which emerge among the spectators on the “spirit” of this manifestation.
    Abstract: Ce travail vise à rendre compte des relations entre création musicale, politiques de la diversité et mondialisation dans l’Allemagne d’aujourd’hui en partant d’un cas : creole, un cycle de compétitions organisé selon un principe fédéral, qui donne lieu à des festivals dans différentes villes et débouche tous les deux ans sur un prix récompensant trois ensembles de « musiques du monde d’Allemagne ». Selon les textes des programmes, cette manifestation est censée illustrer la créolisation du monde et les connexions émergeant entre différentes cultures et genres musicaux présents en Allemagne. Lorsque l’on se penche sur le processus d’émergence de ce projet et les dynamiques de mobilisation des participants, il s’avère cependant que le spectre des attentes est plus complexe et que ces événements, plutôt qu’illustrer une réalité univoque, fabriquent en des versions plurielles tout un monde de musiques d’Allemagne. L’étude de ce cas n’est pas une fin en soi mais un moyen pour appréhender divers aspects de l’Allemagne contemporaine. Les débats qui ont cours dans l’intimité du secteur des « musiques du monde » manifestent plus largement des tensions traversant la société allemande d’aujourd’hui : en tant que terre d’immigration partagée entre l’idéalisation du métissage et la mise en avant de cultures distinctes, en tant que « pays de musique » connu pour la richesse de son patrimoine savant et en même temps désireux de promouvoir des artistes « populaires » ou « modernes », en tant que système politique fédéral devant composer avec les diverses instances locales et les cadres mondialisés du marché et de la politique culturelle. Autant l’arrière-plan considéré dans ce travail est large, autant l’attention portée aux situations d’interaction se veut précise : pour rendre compte du processus de fabrique des festivals et des environnements différenciés dans lesquels ils s’inscrivent, des logiques de sélection et des dynamiques de délibérations des jurys, des cadres organisant chaque épreuve ainsi que des débats qui surgissent parmi les spectateurs sur « l’esprit » des festivals creole.

    Abstract: In einem politisch-geteilten ukrainischen Staat legen die Odessiten besonderen Wert darauf, ihre lokale Identität zu betonen. Patriotische Diskurse schöpfen aus dem Imaginären der Stadt, das im lokalen historischen und kulturellen Erbe verwurzelt ist. Durch Repräsentationen aus der Sowjetzeit wurde eine „odessitische Lebensweise“ verbreitet und popularisiert, die heutzutage als Identitätsmodell in den Diskursen benutzt wird. Mit Hilfe dieses symbolischen Kapitals grenzen sich die Bewohner der Stadt von anderen Ukrainern ab. Odessit-sein gilt im Jahr 2013 als politische Aussage. Die Zugehörigkeit zur imaginierten Lokalgemeinschaft wird zum Protest gegen die politischen Schwächen der zeitgenössischen Ukraine. Auf diese Weise wird eine engagierte und respektvolle Haltung gegenüber dem lokalen Erbe eingenommen. In der gespaltenen Ukraine, ist Odessa für seine Bewohner eine positive und inklusive Alternative zum zweipoligen Identitätsmodell (Ukrainer vs. Russen).
    Abstract: The residents of Odessa strive for recognition of their local identity using the city’s inherited imaginary in order to affirm their difference from the rest of Ukraine as well as from Russia. The local historical and cultural heritage is used as symbolic capital. The city of Odessa has always been the object of exoticization, continually represented as “other.” Famous exoticizing representations have kept the myth of Odessa alive in collective memory until the present day. However, this local imaginary competes symbolically with Ukrainian national identity by proposing a more positive set of values. Claiming to be from Odessa turns out to be a political statement. Indeed, “to be an Odessite” refers to the conception of local engagement based on an individual’s responsibility for the community. Nonetheless, this identity is being undermined by the latent destruction of the city’s material heritage and the lack of opportunities for many of its inhabitants. In a country divided by competing identities (e.g. being Ukrainian or Russian), Odessa represents a third inclusive alternative and offers a positive communal identity in a time when the country is being torn apart by regional conflict.

    Abstract: The concept of knowledge society has been invented by the social sciences in order to describe perspectives of modern societies. Nowadays the concept circulates increasingly in the political, educational, and economic field and in the media and has already crossed-over the geographical boundaries to which it had been applied first. Taking knowledge society as a representation serving to interpret and shape social practices, the paper outlines from an interdisciplinary perspective academic debates on the concepts and on notions of knowledge. The paper argues that certain paradigms of social progress and of science as inherent in knowledge society prevent « users » of the concept from considering contesting notions of knowledge, increasing forms of incoherent knowledge, and the accelerating devaluation of knowledge.

    Abstract: By tracing connotations of the word « representation » in history, Roger Chartier elaborates on the word’s various meanings. On the one hand, representation refers to someone or something acting in place of an absent person or object. On the other hand, representation can also refer to public presence. Furthermore, Chartier describes how collective representations and social order are closely related. Finally, Chartier touches on the problem of historical representation itself. He suggests that historical discourse may be a mere representation of the past.

    Abstract: This Working Paper argues that German historians often regard the term « representation » as imported from France. Kaelble insists that the transfer led to a more restricted use of the term, which resulted from four obstacles encountered during the process. Nevertheless, Kaelble writes, research on representations is a developing field in German historical science. As contemporary historians tend to be increasingly interested in crises and global encounters the use of the concept of representations gains momentum.

    Abstract: In the 21st century, many ancestral beliefs are struggling to survive in a hostile, fast-changing world. In southeast Côte d'Ivoire, some Akan communities still make contact with the spirits through Komians or animistic priests who go into a trance and are possessed by the spirits of the Forest and the Waters. In Return to the Land of Souls, Yéo Douley, a disciple of Jean Marie Addiaffi, will set out on a journey to visit his master's grave and carry out a ritual libation. On his travel, he will attend the initiation rites of three people chosen by the spirits and witness one of them proclaimed as the new Komian, or high animistic priest.

    Abstract: Diese Arbeit untersucht die Partizipationsmodi der Migrantennachkommen in Frankreich und Deutschland, insbesondere junger Menschen mit einem türkischen Hintergrund in Deutschland und einem maghrebinischen Hintergrund in Frankreich. Individuen bewegen sich in gesellschaftlichen Räumen, die für das individuelle und kollektive Handeln sowohl Opportunitäten bieten als auch durch Grenzen gekennzeichnet sind. Indem die historischen, institutionellen und strukturellen Rahmenbedingungen Frankreichs und Deutschlands verglichen werden, können die Unterschiede zwischen den Partizipationsmodi junger Menschen mit Migrationshintergrund analysiert werden. Die Auswertung repräsentativer Daten für Frankreich und Deutschland zeigt, dass die Migrantennachkommen in Frankreich deutlich höhere Bildungsabschlüsse erreichen als in Deutschland, wenn gleich die Situation polarisierter ist. Diese Bildungsungleichheiten wirken sich auf die Modi der Partizipation am Arbeitsmarkt aus. Trotz der Defizite der Migrantennachkommen in Deutschland im Hinblick auf das erreichte Bildungsniveau, haben diese eine relativ bessere Situation im Hinblick auf ihre Beschäftigung. Die Nachkommen maghrebinischer Migranten in Frankreich erfahren Arbeitslosigkeit und berufliche Disqualifizierung – trotz relativ hoher Bildungsabschlüsse. Die Partizipationsmodi verweisen auf zwei unterschiedliche, jedoch sich nicht ausschließende soziale Logiken: eine soziale Distanzierung durch Relegation in Deutschland und eine soziale Distanzierung durch Diskriminierung in Frankreich. Schließlich haben der nationale Rahmen und die Diskriminierungserfahrung einen Einfluss auf die von ihnen entwickelten Formen von Zugehörigkeit. So tendieren Jugendliche mit maghrebinischem Hintergrund, die Diskriminierung erfahren eher dazu, ihre Zugehörigkeit zur französischen Nation aufzukündigen. Dagegen hat die Diskriminierungserfahrung keinen Effekt auf das Zugehörigkeitsgefühl türkischer Migrantennachkommen in Deutschland.
    Abstract: This doctoral thesis analyses the modes of participating of young people of migrant origin, in particular those of North-African origin and of Turkish origin in today’s France and Germany respectively. Especially, it deals with their educational achievements, their transition into the labour market and their forms of belonging (citizenship and elective participation). The results from French and German micro-data indicate that despite their severe difficulties in terms of school achievements, young people of Turkish origin have a more favorable working life than young people of North-African origin who are more successful in the educational system. The former experience unemployment, instability and declassing more frequently in their working life. Two types of processes of social distancing emerge from those results: through relegation in Germany and through discrimination in France. Those processes trace back to institutional, structural and symbolic mechanisms. Furthermore, both the national framework and experience of discrimination influence the forms of belonging of those population groups in different ways.
    Abstract: Cette thèse analyse les modes de participation des descendants de migrants, en particulier maghrébins en France et turcs en Allemagne. Selon le cadre national dans lequel ils évoluent, les descendants de migrants n’ont pas les mêmes opportunités et ne font pas face à des contraintes similaires. Ainsi, en confrontant les conditions institutionnelles et structurelles propres aux sociétés française et allemande, il est possible de s’interroger sur les variations des modes de participation des descendants de migrants. Plusieurs dimensions sont étudiées : les inégalités dans l’accès aux titres scolaires, les transitions sur le marché du travail, le type d’emploi et les formes d’appartenance (lien de citoyenneté et lien de participation élective). Les résultats fondés sur l’exploitation quantitative de grandes enquêtes montrent que les descendants de migrants turcs, malgré leur situation d’échec scolaire, ont une vie professionnelle plus favorable que les descendants de migrants maghrébins qui ont quant à eux des diplômes plus élevés. Ces derniers, contrairement aux premiers, connaissent plus souvent le chômage, ils ont quitté le secteur industriel dans lequel étaient concentrés leurs parents, et subissent souvent un déclassement et une instabilité professionnelle. Les résultats obtenus laissent apparaître deux types de logiques sociales : la mise à distance sociale par la relégation en Allemagne et par la discrimination en France. Ces logiques sociales renvoient à des mécanismes institutionnels, structurels et symboliques précis qui sont développés et théorisés dans ce travail. Enfin, les descendants de migrants ne développent pas les mêmes formes d’appartenance. Alors que l’expérience du rejet amène les descendants de migrants maghrébins à révoquer leur appartenance à la société française, les descendants de migrants turcs sont maintenus dans un entre-soi qui, en quelque sorte, « va de soi ».

    Abstract: Shot in Cameroon and Brussels, Je ne suis pas moi-même examines the complex network surrounding the international market of African antiquities, and the contradictions in a European art market hungry for new tribal objects. Where do the African masks come from? What journey do these masks make before their unveiling in the windows of the biggest galleries or art collections in Europe? Who determines the economic and aesthetic value of these objects now that colonialism is supposedly dead? And then there's a continent called Africa, in need of economic resources and therefore willing to sell its cultural heritage or, if need be, to fake it. The authenticity of the objects becomes blurred when the people that once adored them start to sell them.

    Abstract: Everyone knows the concentration and extermination camp Auschwitz. But, have you heard of a small Polish town named Oświęcim? A young team of filmmakers arrives at this site, where a bizarre memory conflict between Polish and Jewish remembrances on the Holocaust takes place. The filmmakers find themselves caught in the crossfire of the conflict's parties. While the Jews want to defend their right of memory connected to the sites of the camps, the Poles just want a normal life. Is it really that simple? Is Auschwitz primarily a site of Polish suffering? Do Jewish Holocaust survivors have the right to dispel the Polish inhabitants of apartments on the camp's grounds by force? Or do the Poles have the right to locate their settlements and wheat fields above the ashes of tens of thousands of gassed and burned Jews?

    Keywords: Brass bands ; Popular music ; Music ; Jacqueville (Côte d'Ivoire) Music. ; France ; Documentary films.
    Abstract: This is the story of that brass band, a brass band that isn't at all like a military band. It's a dancing brass band, an African brass band, that accompanies all the big and little moments of life: national festivals, religious ceremonies, funerals, fetes and celebrations, a musical game involving a football, tunes from the famous Mapuka dance, or the experimental use of sacred drums together with the brass band. A lively debate between the musicians, in which a sense of humor is clearly present, as they examine fundamental questions about their tradition and its transformations in the context of the life of people today. This film was shot in July and August 2002, a few weeks before the outbreak of civil war in the Côte d'Ivoire.

    Abstract: In Yemen, the land of Queen Saba, a wide variety of veils can be found. In the capital Sanaa, the women, although at first sight appearing to all be wearing but black, distinguish themselves one from the other through this diversity. Each veil not only carries its own symbolism, but the variety of ways of wearing each becomes a form of expression. It becomes a game of what one hides and what one unveils. Approaching the veil from a fashion standpoint, this film offers a different perspective on this highly and debated topic.

    Abstract: Filmmaker Dai Sil Kim-Gibson explores the aftermath of the 1992 LA Civil Unrest in her film WET SAND. Her groundbreaking 1993 documentary SA-I-GU stands as one of the crucial texts to offer a Korean American perspective on the events surrounding the Los Angeles riots – an invaluable discussion tool for promoting better understanding of the socio-political factors that played into one of the grimmest moments in United States race relations. With WET SAND, Kim-Gibson revisits Los Angeles to learn what changes have occurred since then, only to discover that living conditions have deteriorated and that few remedies have been administered to the communities most stricken. Through interviews with a multi-ethnic set of first-hand witnesses, this essential follow-up probes deeper into the racial and economic issues that not only shaped the climate of 1992 Los Angeles, but continue to affect all Americans today.

    Abstract: When they emigrated to Europe in the 60's and 70's, Moroccans brought with them their culture and their "diseases" ( caused by the the jinn that inhabit some of them). In Europe, most North African families will include someone who is undergoing this kind of disorder, with diverse manifestations (asthma, paralysis, epilepsy, "crises", sterility etc.) which, if left untreated, may be extremely serious and destructive, causing suffering and delinquent behaviour. In the film we follow two Moroccan women: Hind and Fatima who are looking to solve their problems caused by invisibles. They are visiting healers in Europe and Morocco. The healers "negotiate" with invisible forces and are using therapeutic rituals.

    Abstract: This film tells with verve and a touch of self-irony the history of research on the Dogon since the famous 1931 expedition of Marcel Griaule. The film establishes the original expedition in the context of French anthropology at the time. Jean Rouch, celebrated filmmaker and less known as an anthropologist on the Dogon, narrates part of the story, and interviews Dogon elders and veteran expedition-member, Germaine Dieterlen.

    Keywords: Areare (Solomon Islands people) Songs and music. ; Panpipes ; Panpipes Construction ; Musical instruments ; Musical instruments Construction ; Folk songs, Areare ; Panpipes ensembles. ; Music ; France ; Documentary films.
    Abstract: Part 1: A fascinating documentation of the traditional musical culture of the 'Are'are people of the Solomon Islands, in the South-Western Pacific. The three LP records published after a first one-year field-research in 1969-70 were a phenomenal surprise (Garfias) as they revealed a completely unknown music (outside of the Solomon Islands) of an exceptional beauty and complexity in its instrumental and vocal polyphonies. It seemed to the researcher an absolute necessity to document visually what had been published on sound recordings, showing in detail all the playing techniques, body movements of performers, and spatial coordination of music ensembles and dancers. The documentary consists of a comprehensive inventory of all the twenty musical genres of the 'Are'are people and is structured according to native classification, along with explanations by master musician 'Irisipau.
    Abstract: Parts 2 & 3: For the 'Are'are people of the Solomon Islands, the most valued music is that of the four types of panpipe ensembles. With the exception of slit drums, all musical instruments are made of bamboo; therefore the general word for instruments and the music performed with them is bamboo ('au). This film shows the making of panpipes, from the cutting the bamboo in the forest to the making of the final bindings. The most important part of the work consists in shaping each tube to its necessary length. Most 'Are'are panpipe makers measure the length of old instruments before they shape new tubes. Master musician 'Irisipau, surprisingly, takes the measure using his body, and adjusts the final tuning by ear. For the first time we can see here how the instruments and their artificial equiheptatonic scale—seven equidistant degrees in an octave—are practically tuned.

    Abstract: Director Lee Hyeong-pyo tells us in the opening narration that his film will reflect 'a time when the old age and the new stand shoulder to shoulder.' Kim Hak-gyu, a doctor of Oriental medicine, spends his days hanging out with two friends -- a fortuneteller and a realtor. The three conduct their business from Kim's home in a small alley of traditional Korean homes. Ordinary life happens around this trio, as does trouble. Kim's family problems take center stage throughout most of the film. His stubbornness and arrogance create conflicts for his family and his friends. Across the street from his home is the modern office of Choi Du-Yeol, a doctor of Western medicine, who shares a mutual attraction with Kim's daughter, a widow. Choi knows that Kim frowns on his Western practice as well as his interest in his daughter. Kim's son, Hyeon-gyu, is dating a woman who becomes pregnant. When the two decide to get married, Kim objects and kicks his son out of the house, which stirs other troubles. The trio of friends cheats a couple who want their fortune read out of their wishes as well as their money. And when Choi decides to run for city council, Kim hears of this and decides to run against him despite the warning of his family that this will wreak havoc on them. Lessons come hard for this family as it makes its way toward the modern world. But as in real life, sweetness mingles with the bitter as the meaning and value of family and friends emerge.

    Abstract: In a remote fishing village, life is simple and tranquil. Dance and song open the film as the fishermen sing of their good harvest. Their cherished traditions keep the call of modern Seoul at bay, but not for In-soon, the daughter of fisherman Chun-san. She wants to join a friend in Seoul (Ok-boon, an independent woman) to make money and go to school. When her father is lost at sea, the debt he owes to a village lender falls upon In-soon, as her bereaved mother takes more cash from the lender who wants the daughter as his concubine. However, the lender's son, Cheol-soo, woos her into going with him to Seoul where he says she can find a job. Instead, he keeps her for himself and takes her purity. In-soon's friend Ok-boon knows Cheol-soo's ways and helps In-soon to escape. This sets In-soon on a course that threatens to destroy her life. Fisherman's Fire is one of the films from the late Japanese colonial period that the Korean Film Archive (KOFA) obtained through the China Film Archive (CFA) in 2004. Along with Homeless Angel (Jib-eobsneun cheonsa), Story of Sim-chung (Sim Cheongjeon), and Military Train (Gun-yong-yeolcha), it is one of just four films from the 1930s whose existence in Korea has been verified.

    Keywords: Espionage Drama. ; Sino-Japanese War, 1937-1945 Drama. ; Canada ; Feature films.
    Abstract: In 1937, as the Japan-China war intensified, and the Japanese military occupied Chosun (old Korea), this film emerged as a pro-Japanese government-sponsored film. A tale of espionage driven by love, Military Train centers on the friendship between two young Korean men, Jeom-yong and Won-jin. Won-jin is in love with Jeom-yong's sister and wants to free her from her miserable, degrading hostess job, but it will take money to extricate herself from work that has left her in debt to her employer. When a Chinese spy approaches Won-jin and seduces him with the cash he needs, Won-jin divulges secret information about the military train, secrets that he gains from spying on Jeom-yong who drives the military train. After Won-jin leaks the information, he is pricked with guilt and this leads to his trying to undo what he has tragically set in motion. The film was released to coincide with the mobilization of military troops soon after the start of the Sino-Japanese war and to promote the importance of the military mission of the railroad to transport the troops. Along with Homeless Angel (Jib-eobsneun cheonsa), Story of Sim-chung (Sim Cheongjeon), and Fisherman's Fire (Eohwa), it is one of just four films from the 1930s whose existence in Korea has been verified.

    Abstract: Before World War II, modern Seoul in the thirties was an urban landscape of cafes, hotels, and show rooms, presented compellingly (and clearly under Japanese colonial governance). A vain housewife, drawn to such places, desires a life free from traditional chores and wifely obligations. She rejects her bird in a cage status and is expelled from her home by her husband Seon-yong. Abandoning her young daughter Jeong-hee, Ae-soon moves into a hotel with her lover Chang-geon, while her heartbroken daughter is encouraged by her father to go on with life. Ae-soon finds out that her lover is not rich at all but is a laundry worker. When he robs the hotel, Ae-soon turns him in. She then meets a fate that turns her life to darkness. One of the featured films in The Past Unearthed: The Second Encounter/Collection of Chosun Films in the 1930s, a boxed set, Sweet Dream is the earliest surviving Korean film, now restored.
