Dear Linda
I echo the recommendation of Byeong Young-joo's The Murmuring. But this is
the first part of a vital trilogy. The other two are Habitual Sadness and
My Own Breathing.
Byeon lived with the comfort women for several months to get their trust.
The Murmuring arises out of that. The second film was the comfort women's
idea - showing them working, their creative practices, etc. And in the
third one Byeon has taught them how to use the camera and microphone and
she and the comfort women go to other parts of asia where the korean
comfort women talk to comfort women from elsewhere. It is really powerful.
