Night Song
Running time: 93 mins
Words make you think. Music makes you feel. A song makes you feel a thought. E.Y. Harburg Some people are like songs: flowing, melodic, captivating, inspiring. Heein captivates Seungwoo. Seungwoo travels to Heeins village, looking for a place to expand his mind and motivate his writing for his film. Heein does just that for him, exemplifying how someones aura can alter your vision and filter your outlook on life. But, Seungwoo is not the only one seeking something greater. Director Hyun-jung Lee has focused her films thus far in Korean mythology and feminism, and Night Song furthers her examinations, resonating like a soft, light melody heard in the crisp night air. - Jade Estrada Preceded by the short film: Wen's Day; dir. Oscar Lalo; Switzerland; 7 min.
