Program Note
Nowadays, the only ones remaining in Korean rural villages are senior citizens, farming and living in harmony with nature. Although the rhythm of their lives differs from that of city dwellers, they do no harm, and yet the government decides to build an anti-missile system near them instead of showing its appreciation for them. Nothing can be done to reverse the placement of the THAAD missile system in their village, or to placate the villagers’ grievances. To the senior citizens who have already experienced how human life can be destroyed on the battlefield, this situation is unacceptable; they still remember the Korean War. Those who have lived for a long time also know how life goes on and their stubborn fight becomes part of everyday life—an ironic battle for peace in a peaceful village. Soseongri is directed by Park Bae-il, a member of “Act through Media.” He has made a number of documentaries. This particular film runs with the cinematic slogan “Go, THAAD and Come, Peace!” (LEE Seung-min)
