Experiencing Interruptions?

Kim Hak-Soon stands in front of Us Again

On August 14, 1991, an office in Jonggak was crowded with reporters. In a cramped space of less than 10 square meters, Grandma Hak-soon KIM told her own story, at times with bluntness and at times passionately.
On the spot, the crime against humanity so-called ‘comfort women’ revealed a concrete picture through ‘testimony’.
The subsequent international solidarity, the conviction in an international court against the perpetrator Japan, and several “discourses” published by Japan. The beginning of everything that brought about change was the speech on August 14, 1991.

This documentary tries to look back at their stories 30 years after their first testimony. While Japan's apology and reparations have not yet been made at the governmental level and even the momentum of the 'comfort women' movement itself has waned. we will look at the past of the early 'comfort women' movement and explore the 'future' to move forward based on this.
