    Abstract: Lina Fruzzetti and Ákos Östör began a major film project in 2001, documenting the revival of an ancient tradition in India scroll painting and the singing of stories depicted in the scrolls. The result was the award winning film Singing Pictures, released in 2006. The current film is a follow-up to the previous one and deals with the life and work of a painter, composer, singer, well known in rural West Bengal, as a poet and mystic of legendary proportions. Dukhushyam is a charismatic figure, one who has departed from convention in many ways, most importantly in encouraging women to take up the traditional craft of scroll painting and musical composition pursued almost exclusively by men before. Singing Pictures was about the trials and ultimate triumph of 15 women in the village of Naya, all of them his students, who formed a cooperative to practice the ancient craft of painting scrolls, composing and performing the songs accompanying the scrolls. In a series of edited sequences the new film chronicles Dukhushyam's vision of the decline and rebirth of his art; his tolerant Sufi Muslim spirituality; his engagement with Hindus, Muslims and the modern world; his encyclopedic knowledge of changing musical and painting histories and techniques; the influence of his beliefs on his way of life, and his teachings for future generations of painters and singers in his community.

    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: 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.
