▪ Logline

In a village submerged deep underwater, there are names who killed, died, and survived during the Korean War. While taking photographs of my granny, the latent images of the names unfolded before me.


▪  Synopsis

My granny’s parents and family were killed by neighbors during the Korean War. 

Caught between accusations of being right-wing and left-wing, the village turned into a battleground where people killed each other and more than 100 people died. 

After the war, even the village, where the family of killers lived next doors still, was submerged by the Jangseong Dam and disappeared. I meet scattered names with a film camera.
