Program Note
In this film beginning with the line, "I have a nightmare whenever fall comes," the director visits her hometown Chuncheon after four years. Her nightmare, which seemed to end when she left Chuncheon, has been repeated every year during her stay in Seoul. In Chuncheon, where she arrives exhausted, her mother still lives very hard and consistently. In an old town where the director herself spent her childhood, her mother still lives in. The Strangers features a landscape of an old neighborhood about to disappear, along with the family history of the director, her mother, and her grandmother. Scenes following the director′s narration are sometimes consistent but usually conflict disproportionately. Why did the mother live so hard and have a feud with her own mother? Why are the memories of the neighborhood and friends so fragmented and lonely? And how do the old memories meet and part with ‘Me’ and my family now and in this space? Leaving so many questions behind, just follow the flow of personal reasons, and you can find something that beats your heart. (Huh Kyoung)
Director
MYOUNG So-hee
Myoung So-hee began making documentary films by chance in 2011, and continues to do so today. While working as the assistant director on How to Become a Chair (2014), she revisited “me and my mom’s story,” which she had given up two years earlier. Hence began a long “visit” (The Strangers literal translation) in Chuncheon.
