“I will defend her to the end!” Heo Jin-suk, the titular protagonist of Hong Eun-won’s first film – and only the second Korean feature by a woman director – is defending her mother-in-law who has confessed to murder, but she could be speaking for all women’s rights.

This screening will be introduced by So Mayer. So Mayer is a film journalist, film lecturer, poet and activist. Member of queer feminist curation collective, Club des Femmes.
