Free screening of ‘Reiterations of Dissent’
Trailer: https://vimeo.com/86655988
‘Reiterations of Dissent’ concerns the suppressed history and fragmented memories of the Jeju April Third Massacre of 1948. During this time genocide was committed onto large parts of the civilian population on Jeju Island. Six video narratives uncover various underlying political motivations and portray how different aspects of un-reconciled trauma keep resonating in the present landscape of Jeju Island, in literature, in the memories of survivors and relatives, and in shamanic rituals mediating between the living and the dead.
<거듭되는 항거>는 1948년 수많은 제주 주민들이 집단 학살을 당한 제주 4.3 사건의 억압된 역사와 흩어진 기억에 대해 얘기한다. 여섯 개의 내러티브 형식 비디오로 구성된 이 작품은 이 사건 배후의 정치적 계략을 파헤치고 나아가 현대 제주의 풍경 곳곳에, 문학 작품에, 생존자들과 희생자 가족들의 기억 속에, 그리고 산 자와 죽은 자 사이 매개가 되어주는 굿과 같은 의식에, 깊이 베어 있는 아직도 해소되지 못한 트라우마의 흔적을 쫓는다.
South Korea/Denmark, 59 minutes, Language: Korean & English, Subtitles: Korean/English

Free screening of “the Ghosts of Jeju”, London
Award winning independent documentary focussing on a unique peace movement on Jeju Island, South Korea. Farmers, fishers, priests, nuns and young activists struggle to prevent construction of a huge naval base, part of Obama’s military ‘pivot to Asia’, on their idyllic island. Film Maker Regis Tremblay carefully uncovers US lead civilian massacres on Jeju Island before and during the Korean War to explain villagers’ resistance to militarisation of what the Korean government named, ‘the Island of World Peace’.
This free screening is part of the New Cross and Deptford Free Film Festival 2015. Deli X will be serving Korean food and beer before the screening. Their will be a short Skype Q&A with director Regis Tremblay after the screening.
