A filmmaker struggles for artistic freedom in the face of violent repression. Made during the period of martial law in South Korea, this experimental 16mm film is a graphic visual allegory of the violence and agony inherent in the filmmaking process. In a performance that grows increasingly macabre, Han snips, splices and projects film strips and drapes them over her body in a dark studio lit by the glare of a projector beam. The film suggests that an artist existing in a repressive regime must make painful and even self-destructive choices. At the same time, her camera is a tool with revolutionary potential. In the words of Solanas and Getino: “The camera is a gun that shoots 24 frames per second.” (Source: SGIFF) Edit Translation
