SHIN Sang-ok Focus in Udine's Far East

2008/04/02 | Source | Permalink |

The 10th edition of Italy's Udine Far East Film festival will celebrate its anniversary with a careful selection of over 60 Asian films and a very special spotlight on late Korean director SHIN Sang-ok (1926-2006). The festival opens April 18 and runs until the 26th in the city of Udine in north-eastern Italy.

The festival will screen four rare works of SHIN, all made in the 1950's and never before screened in the West. Among them are A Flower in Hell (1958), about the lives of petty crooks and prostitutes around an American army base, It's Not Her Sin (1959), a trial drama about a woman assaulted and accused of bringing it on herself, and Sister's Garden (1959) a tormented tale of two sisters both in love with a painter.

Director SHIN was a major force in the Korean film industry, having directed over 60 films. He became world-famous for having been obliged - for eight years - to live in North Korea, following his abduction by secret agents of the dictator KIM Il-Sung who wanted to force him to shoot propaganda films and relaunch the country's home-grown cinema industry.
