About this event

The main festival opens at the McCord Museum on May 26 at 7:20 p.m. with an award-winning documentary called Sewing Sisters (2020) by LEE Hyuk-rae and KIM Jung-young from South Korea. It is produced by Ellen Y. D. KIM, head programmer at Bucheon International Film Festival in Korea. The story follows three women textile workers and the labour history of women during the 1970s. This documentary has a tone of satiric comedy. It is highly praised by director BONG Joon-ho, the Academy Award-winning director. He gave it a “two thumbs up” as “the most beautiful documentary film he has ever seen in recent years.”

Le festival principal s'ouvre au Musée McCord le 26 mai à 19 h 20 avec un documentaire primé intitulé Sewing Sisters (2020) de LEE Hyuk-rae et KIM Jung-young de la Corée du Sud. Il est produit par Ellen Y. D. KIM, responsable de la programmation du Festival international du film de Bucheon en Corée. Le scénario suit trois ouvrières du textile et l'histoire du travail des femmes dans les années 1970. Ce documentaire a un ton de comédie satirique. Il a reçu les éloges du réalisateur BONG Joon-ho, lauréat d'un Oscar. Il lui a donné deux pouces en l'air comme "le plus beau film documentaire qu'il ait vu ces dernières années".
