Baram VIII - synopsis

The movie is set in Seoul. Unlike earlier videopoems of mine, generally set in Hadong, a southern province of South Korea, Seoul is world-famous as an immense metropolis. But it, too, has its green spaces -- one of which is Soreapeul (close to the French quarter of Seoul). But, while still natural, it is an area in which development is also encroaching


This is from a long series of "authorial movies" -- these are videopoems that are created by the author; furthermore, all aspects of the movie are also done by one person, giving the overall work the same subjective singularity that literature has.
