New Sakamoto Junji Film

[Stephen Cremin]

Korean newspapers reported yesterday (Sunday) that Sakamoto Junji is to
direct a film for Cine Quanon about the kidnapping of Kim Dae-jung in Tokyo
in 1973 for distribution in March 2001.  That's quite precise.  Lee Bong-ou
- presumably producing - is quoted: "the kidnapping symbolises ambiguous
relationship between Korean and Japan.  I would like to capture its five day
duration to reflect upon the relationship between the two countries."
