Voices of the Silenced (UK Premiere) Trailer

This film delves into the historical experiences of Park Soo-nam, born in colonial-era Japan, retracing the journey and the history of ZainichiーKorean in Japan. Through the lens of two 16mm documentary films shot since 1985 and the restoration of unreleased footage, spanning 100,000 feet, it resurrects the testimonies of witnesses. The film raises questions for audiences, probing what was lost through colonisation and war, and serves as a record of the struggle to reclaim those losses.
Shedding light from the past to the present, the film challenges us to ponder the essence of documentary filmmaking. It raises inquiries about the significance of reclaiming what was lost in the face of historical injustices.
This film is a collaborative effort between the director, Park Soo-nam, who has now lost her eyesight, and her daughter and co-director, Park Maeui.
Screened at the 74th Berlinale’s Forum Special of the Berlin International Film Festival and winner of the Mecenat Award at the Busan International Film Festival 2023.
