Su-mi is happily reunited with her sister Su-yeon after being released from an institution, but neither are thrilled about returning home. Their widowed father has remarried, with new wife Eun-joo presiding over their home, which the girls resent Eun-joo for. They try their best to resume everyday life until strange events start occurring. Shadowy figures appear in unlikely places, keepsakes are vandalized, everyone is gripped by suspicion. As unexplained incidents pile up, the house seethes with hushed accusations, sexual tension, and abuse. But are the specters just in Su-mi’s mind, or are unearthly spirits manipulating the household?To Note:- All film screenings are held at Oldham Theatre, National Archives of Singapore. - Tickets can be purchased at the Oldham Theatre Box Office.

They oscillate between the virtuous and the vampish, the pitiful and the horrific, the subjugated and the fiercely independent.Featuring historically important early classics, popular genre films and critically acclaimed works by iconic male and female Korean directors, the programme’s 24 female character-driven films hope to offer a retrospective view on female representation in Korean cinema, and open up new perspectives through the restoration of their faces within the cinematic imaginary.Supported by the Korean Film Archive (KOFA) Updates tag:peatix.com,2019-10-22 05:23:45 2019-10-22 05:23:45 The event description was updated.
