In Korean Indie Film realm, 'Space' has become an important issue lately and they require some tool to analyze what these films are participating on the discourse. Because usually it has been told how desperate and miserable for the residents of the rural area are, aside from the politics of the way of representation. That is mainly focusing on societal exclusion. However, at this time in Korea, when a dream of Construction State promoted by the government is whaling over the country, some other points also should be suggested. It could be modernity as a historical factor and labor as a (personal) lifetime history narrative.
One of my friend sent me a list of 'things fo read' to research the matter in a basis of sociology. Truly wonderful. We're going to have something like a seminar with this. Supposedly, more 'outraged' documentaries will come out this spring's "Indie Documentary Film Festival". This research should be totally helpful.
I should wrap up the other issue on 'working poor twenties in Korean indie films' as soon as possible(pretty doubtful, though...).
