Program Trends:

Looking Back at Korean Cinema by Highlighting a Special Actor and Genre Films:
For this year’s Korean cinema special program, the 22nd BIFAN presents “JUNG Woo-sung: The Star, the Actor, the Artist”. As seen from his role in Beat – a movie that had far more depth than one would expect from a “teen film” – to his role as a villain in Cold Eyes, JUNG Woo-sung showed that he was willing to take on any genre, and in the process, he developed into a distinguished veteran actor. By looking back at the history of JUNG Woo-sung – the man who is as charming as ever and is spreading his gracious influence onto society to grow from being a star to a celebrated actor, and then to an artist – audiences will able to understand the progression of Korean genre films.

“Special Screening to Celebrate INDIESTORY’s 20 Years Just Turned 20! Fantastic at Full Speed” is a special program that will be retracing the history of INDIESTORY, a central figure in the world of Korean independent and low-budget films that has firmly withstood the test of time. There will also be a special screening section that shows all of the films by the man who directed Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum, JEONG Beong-sik, and a special screening of The Merciless – a film that gave birth to new possibilities and a new fandom last year amid the fervent responses it was met with.

A Special Program for Horror and Sci-Fi Films Featuring Genre Film Masters and Masterpieces:
Wes Craven, George A. Romero, and Tobe Hooper – renowned directors who passed away between the years of 2015 and 2017 – are masters of film that will not only be remembered by the horror film industry; the names of these directors will forever go down in cinematic history. In order to examine the impact these three directors had on the horror genre, three of their early films have been selected for “3X3 EYES: A Special Program Featuring, Three Horror Masters And Their Eyes”. This special program will give audiences a chance to appreciate cinematic masterpieces that would be difficult to catch on the big screen otherwise.

As a continuation of last year’s special program titled “Terrible Women: Monsters and Villainess”, which looked at the depiction of women in horror films, the 22nd BIFAN presents “The Women Who Leapt Through Time: The Representation of Women in Sci-Fi Films” to examine how women are portrayed and have developed in sci-fi films, and how they have come to stand tall as autonomous characters. By featuring classics such as The Stepford Wives and Alien, as well as John Carpenter’s remarkable cult classic Ghost of Mars and George Miller’s recent masterpiece Mad Max: Fury Road – Black and Chrome, this special program will introduce you to strong and phenomenal women who transcend time.

This Year’s Spotlight, Indian Films:
The 22nd BIFAN will be shining the spotlight on Indian films. We know that more films are made in Bollywood than in Hollywood. However, there’s much more to Indian films than that fact alone. The face of Indian films – which are primarily made in three regions, including Tamil Nadu and Hyderabad – are extremely vast and diverse. From the types of films that feature song-and-dance sequences that come to many people’s minds when they think of Indian movies, to experimental films, Indian films cover a wide range of genres.

Secret Superstar, a film produced by one of the biggest stars in Indian cinema, Aamir KHAN, is the closing film of the 22nd BIFAN. In a film that recently opened in Korea titled Dangal, Aamir KHAN plays a character who trains his two daughters to become wrestlers. Dangal is a sophisticated film with emotional resonance that presents a progressive view of women and is a movie that shows the outstanding quality of Indian films. Secret Superstar takes it a step further and clearly portrays female solidarity.

Mom – a female revenge movie starring Sridevi, one of the most influential actresses of Indian cinema who sadly passed away at the beginning of the year – tells the story of a woman who seeks to avenge her daughter, who is a victim of assault. A film about a superhero who resists social evils titled Bhavesh Joshi Superhero and horror film Ezra have been included in the lineup for the World Fantastic section. In a film by a witty and promising director known as Q titled Garbage, a woman who has been humiliated by revenge porn finds herself committing torture and murder in the process of getting revenge on a man. Also, three films that became big hits in three regions in India, Zapped, Jai Lava Kusa, and Tiger is Alive, will be screened in the Best of Asia section. Zapped is a film that launches a scathing and exhilarating attack on the corruption in India’s healthcare industry.

In addition, four Indian films will be selected for the NAFF It Project genre film project market based on their originality, on how true they stay to their genre, and for their potential of going on to completion. On July 16, while the B.I.G NAFF is in session, there will be a special pitching event for the four projects and a reception highlighting Indian projects and films.

Genre Films Made by Women, the Gender Awareness of Genre Films:
One thing that will stand out at the 22nd BIFAN is the remarkable breakthroughs made by female directors. A considerable number of films by rising female directors will be featured. There’s French director Coralie Fargeat’s debut film titled Revenge, which shows gratifying scenes of revenge against men who try to cover up their crimes of sexual violence; and Tigers are Not Afraid, which tells a beautiful and sad story of children struggling to survive in Mexico City – a city that has become dilapidated from the war on drugs. Tower. A Bright Day is a mysterious and chilling study of mankind by budding Polish director, Jagoda SZELC. In A Vigilante, Olivia WILDE plays a woman who survives domestic violence and seeks revenge, and YU Eun-jeong’s debut feature film Ghost Walk tells a story of the horror of disappearance by depicting the time of ghosts, which flows in reverse.

Changes in perspectives that are found in genre films is a worldwide trend. The Misandrists – which will be screened in the Forbidden Zone along with Indian film Garbage – is about the commotion that ensues when a radial leftist young man clandestinely enters a secret society called the “Misandrists” which aims to overthrow the patriarchy and establish a new order of female dominance. Masterpieces that paint a picture of the growth and inner world of women like Thelma, which connects religious oppression to supernatural experiences; Blue My Mind, which is a coming-of-age film that uses transformation as a motif; When Margaux Meets Margaux, which talks about what happens when the ego of a young woman and the ego of a middle-aged woman meet; and Virus Tropical, which is the screen adaptation of Power Paola’s autobiographical graphic novel, will also be screened. From the outlandish musical that will be screened in the World Fantastic section titled Anna and the Apocalypse that portrays a duel that goes down on Christmas Eve between a young girl and a zombie, to a touching film scheduled to be shown in the Family Zone section titled Supa Modo that shows how an entire village bands together to help a young girl with cancer see her dream come true, and Maquia: When the Promised Flower Blooms, which is a poignant tale of growth about a young immortal girl, there are noteworthy films that cover a wide range of genres and audiences that show the changes in gender perspectives.

Experiencing the New Wave of Japanese Films:
The recent crop of major films that have been coming out of Korea, China, and Japan have been showy but boring. Looking at the main lineup in theaters reveals films that seem to have been produced based on a formula that guarantees ticket sales. KOREEDA Hirokazu and KUROSAWA Kiyoshi are still making films, but it’s not enough. MIIKE Takashi can no longer bring out interesting major films. Ventures that are fresh and different need to be undertaken.

Our House, which won the Grand Prix at the PIA Film Festival last year; The Limit of Sleeping Beauty, which is the full-length commercial film version of the mid-length film of the same title which won the Jury’s Special Award at the 2016 Yubari Fantastic Film Festival; The Hungry Lion, which portrays how women are victimized by secret filming; I’m Crazy, which weaves together music and images in a sophisticated way; The Sacrament, which brilliantly shows the cinematic imagination of the YouTube generation; and One Cut of the Dead, which creatively makes use of the clichés found in zombie flicks, are movies filmed by young Japanese directors, and they all feel new and different. The visual representation and the viewpoints of the films could easily be looked at as being part of a new wave in Japanese cinema.

Once known as one of the “Four Heavenly Kings of Pink”, ZEZE Takahisa struck gold with his 64 series last year after having spent his career making major movies. In his film The Lowlife, ZEZE Takahisa reached the peak of the erotic drama genre. We recommend that you pay attention to The Lowlife, which is an adaption of the 2016 novel by Japanese AV star and best-selling author of a collection of essays and two novels, Mana SAKURA. SHIRAISHI Kazuya – who will be presenting two films, The Blood of Wolves, which could be called the 21st century version of the classic Yakuza film Battles Without Honour and Humanity, and Sunny, which follows the reality of the internet generation – is currently the most fascinating director in Japan. SHIRAISHI Kazuya was acknowledged for his work in The Devil’s Path, and he received a great deal of attention for his Roman Porno Reboot Project Dawn of the Felines, which is a remake of TANAKA Noboru’s Night of the Felines. Dynamite Graffiti, which will be screened in the Forbidden Zone section, is the film adaptation of an autobiographical essay that was written by an editor who led the erotic magazine syndrome in Japan in the 1970s. The film will give you a look at the erotic landscape of that time period.


Opening Film: The Underdog

Directed by OH Sung-yun, LEE Chun-baek

Abandoned dog Moongchi runs into a dog called Jjang-ah and his pack, which hide in a derelict re-development area. Moongchi wants to believe his owner’s last words to him, “Wait for me!” but finally accepts the reality of being abandoned and gets used to living with Jjang-ah and his pack. One day he comes across another lead dog called Bami and his pack, which live wild in the woods. Jjang-ah’s pack are used to the convenience of the city but Bami and his lot try to stay wild; both are dogs with different lifestyles and they go on adventures to ‘The Place’ where every dog can live happily away from the demolition and brutal dog hunters. Crossing busy roads, jumping barbed wire fences and hiding from the tenacious dog hunters, they slowly head north. Will they arrive in ‘The Place’ which is full of beautiful fields and fireflies without any danger?

Closing Film: Secret Superstar

Directed by Advait CHANDAN

14-year-old Insia dreams of becoming a singer. Her mother wants to help her achieve this, but her father is an extremely patriarchal and violent man: he wants her to get married soon and live an ordinary life as another man’s possession. Insia uploads a video clip of her singing with her face covered. Her video goes viral and it looks like her dream is going to come true, but her father will not change his mind; he even tries to destroy the lives of Insia and her mother.

Bucheon Choice: Shorts

Bucheon Choice: Shorts invites 12 short films full of the charm of short films, which puts a powerful story in compressed time and space. In addition to Hair Wolf, the winner of the Sundance Film Festival Short Film Jury Award, Helsinki Mansplaining Massacre, which sharply twists the customs of the horror genre and social conventions, and RIP, a bloody black comedy about a wife and a mother who try to kill the husband who has returned alive because of the way others look at them, are the films that tell the recent interests in an impressive way, such as race, gender and human relations, in a strong combination of comedy and gore. While Deer boy, The Girl in the Snow and Hunger are impressive for their brutal yet beautiful scenes and fantastic styles, Pan, a comedy about the secret of an underground factory of an ordinary bakery, and No Line, whose variation of sophisticated styles rises above, are special in that they present energy of new Japanese directors. Moreover, a Korean short movie Soh is noteworthy for its style as unique as its title. These 12 films of different countries present styles and themes as various as the number of nations and offer the pleasure specific to the genre or new interpretation beyond genre stereotypes. They are a must for the audience who loves genre films.

JUNG Woo-sung: The Star, The Actor, the Artist:

He has been the star and the symbol of eternal youth from the moment he made his first appearance. His heavenly looks have always shined in the center of the screen but his beautiful yet sad eyes, filled with loneliness that cannot go with the mainstream cinema by nature, have touched the audience’s emotions. From the beginning, JUNG Woo-sung has been the very “youth” that everybody in the Korean movie scene has dreamt of, and been literally like “the star in the Heavens.” However, he stepped out of such a prejudiced image of his, which seemed too persistent to break, and began speaking to the world in his own voice.

Special Screening to Celebrate INDIESTORY’s 20 Years Just Turned 20! Fantastic at Full Speed:

This year’s BIFAN organizes a small event to celebrate 20 years of INDIESTORY, which has held a long-standing position as the hub of production and distribution of independent films. Back in the days when there were few opportunities to screen independent movies, INDIESTORY would contemplate on various ways to show the movies, including film festivals and theaters. It even moved forward to the production of new independent films, thereby creating a venue to bring them with the audience closer. It has not stopped running for the past two decades. Now, we would like to take this opportunity to look back on its past and accomplishments with its major works.
