Barbican Film is delighted to present this year's festival in partnership with the Embassy of the Republic of Korea, through the Korean Cultural Centre and the Korea Culture and Content Agency.
Opening with Cannes 2007 favourite Breath (Soom) from acclaimed filmmaker Kim Ki-duk, the festival includes classics from the Korean Film Archive and a day of Korean Animation for all the family, where young viewers can take part in themed workshops and costume play activities.
We're also showing the best Korean films of recent years including A Dirty Carnival (2006 Dir. Yoo Ha) and The War of Flower (2006 Dir. Choi Dong-hoon), plus a retrospective of the work of superstar director Park Chan-wook, who will be here to close the festival with ScreenTalk following a special screening of his latest film I'm a Cyborg but that's OK (Saibogujiman kwenchana).
