In our continuing collaboration with the Asiana International Short Film Festival, festival programmer Christine Ji once again graced us with her charming personality & brought 4 award-winning shorts from last year’s festival in Korea which is held in November every year.
Once again the shorts were quite varied from an exorcist & his young assistant’s battle with possessed young girl in “12th Assistant Deacon” to a short with a rare theme, for Korea, about a lesbian daughter who has to suddenly cancel a vacation with her partner when her father is hospitalized due to an accident.
Korean shorts are on the whole very well produced & have a power & resonance that puts them on a higher level than most other Asian countries including Japan!
