Synopsis

South Korean cinema is experiencing a vibrant creative period, fostering innovative filmmakers while honoring established masters. This surge of talent begs the question: what cultural forces have produced such a diverse range of cinematic voices? In *The Nine Lives of Korean Cinema*, French critic Hubert Niogret offers a comprehensive yet accessible introduction to this distinctive national cinema, which remains largely unknown internationally. Shaped by a complex social and political past, Korean cinema possesses a unique identity in contemporary filmmaking. Niogret's documentary chronicles the country’s cinematic journey – its successes and struggles – while amplifying the voices of artists dedicated to exploring their anxieties, hopes, and dreams.
