As Korean films were also a topic of discussion during the last weeks, I
would like to announce the following for all living in vicinity:

YU Hyen Mok will present his film 'Changma' (South Korea, 1979) on April 3,
at 20:30 in Zurich at the Filmpodium. The director will then travel to Bern
and Basle (Switzerland).

Other Korean films about Shamanism, Confucianism and Buddhism will be shown
during the whole month of April. The films accompany the exhibition in
Museum Rietberg who started last week.

Yu Hyen Mok about his film 'Changma':
(in german: Die Regenzeit)
"Ich war entschlossen, eine Vers?hnung zwischen Nord und S?d zu beg?nstigen,
indem ich das Gemeinsame von Korea betonte. (...) Der schamanistische Aspekt
ist hier von zentraler Bedeutung. Die Schlange versinnbildlicht die
menschliche Seele, welche mit ihrem Besuch das verfluchte Haus reinigt.
Dadurch finden die zwei Familien zur Vers?hnung." (Yu Hyen Mok)


The event was organised by An-Cha Flubacher-Rhim and funded by the service
R?seaux-Echanges of PRO HELVETIA, the Arts Council of Switzerland.
