Documentary Filmmaker in London/Seoul NFTS MA Directing Documentary
Huiju Park is a documentary filmmaker based in London and Seoul, whose work deeply explores the intersection of personal experience and broader societal issues. Her films are inspired by her close connection to the world around her, with a strong focus on feminism. Huiju often appears as a character within her documentaries, blending her own narrative with those of her subjects to create a dialogue between her films and the audience. This style has become her hallmark, allowing her to craft films that offer a mirror to society.
After years of making personal documentaries that delved into topics like cancer, sexual trauma, and domestic violence, she turned her lens outward, extending the courage and resilience she found in her own experiences to empower new voices and perspectives. Huiju’s recent works, Rewinding Dominoes (2024) has been nominated for Directing Award at Watersprite Film Festival 2025, and Bitter Cells (2023), was awarded the Korean Competition Jury Special Mention at DMZ International Documentary Film Festival. Her latest film, Welcome Home Freckles (2025), has also garnered attention internationally and has been selected for competition as a World Premiere at the 2025 SXSW Film & TV Festival.
