Program Note
Many will agree that turmoil in American society is increasing after Trump took office. The Fight focuses on the battle by lawyers from the American Civil Liberties Union that showcase concrete examples of the turmoil in America. They have fierce debates in court with right-wing organizations over the legalization of abortion, transgender rights, refugees, and civil rights issues. The bare faces of the American far-right, represented by Trump, are revealed during the course of the legal battle. The audience soon realizes that the issues raised in the film are not just of American politics, but of a dark reality that affects everyone. (KIM Bo-nyun)
