Shot entirely on an iPhone, this surreal short was codirected by Park Chan-kyong and his brother, Park Chan-wook, and won the Golden Bear for Best Short Film at the sixty-first Berlin International Film Festival. In it, a fisherman feels a tug on his line, and much to his surprise, pulls a woman (K-pop star Lee Jung-hyun) out of the water. She comes alive and is revealed to be a shaman priestess who performs a ritual in honor of a drowned man. Like Citizen’s Forest, a video work on view in the exhibition, Night Fishing was inspired by Park’s fascination with Korean shamanism. Join Park Chan-kyong for a discussion of his work after the film. (Dir.: PARKing CHANce [Park Chan-wook and Park Chan-kyong], Korea, 2011, 33 min., DCP, Korean with English subtitles)
