The six-film Korean Diasporic Cinema program is a distinct highlight of BIFF this year, and it’ll see Korean American filmmakers, including the Oscar-nominated Lee Isaac Chung and the veteran U.S.-based actor John Cho.
It’s a timely move, given the festival’s determination to look to the future after recent political and backstage scandals have shifted the focus toward festival leadership rather than the event itself. This year has seen ongoing investigations of sexual harassment involving former festival director Huh Moonyoung and a revolving door in the upper leadership ranks.
