| Summary: | This masterful piece of documentary filmmaking deftly blends artistic modes of storytelling with critically informed social analysis about the emergence of feminism in Korea in the early twentieth century. New Women focuses in particular on early feminist Na Haesuk, a celebrated writer and painter, and others like her who blazed a trail for their contemporary female counterparts in the twenty-first century. Interviews with scholars, feminists, and a monk who knew Na Haesuk as a young child, are interspersed with rare archival footage and photographs of a dynamic era of transformation in Korean history. |
