Soon Mi Yoo Showing at the Anthology Film Archives

FLAHERTY NYC PGM 2

Oct 15, 7pm @ the Anthology Film Archives

Soon Mi will be showing her work at the Anthology Film Archives in NYC.

In directly challenging the by-now naturalized linkage between truth and reconciliation that human rights advocates have understandably put in place, these conceptually revisionist films attempt to liberate concealed or lost potentials of history. What we think we know about Brecht and the House Unamerican Activities Committee, the tragically entwined histories of South Korea and Vietnam, and Dow Chemical’s development of napalm are all strikingly replayed to vastly different affect and effect in these films.
