A documentary about a school in Japan run by the pro-North Korea General Association of Korean Residents. Voted Best Korean Independent film of 2007.
Hundreds of thousands of third- and fourth-generation ethnic Koreans live in Japan; not fully Japanese, but not fully Korean either. Kim Myeong Joon’s documentary camera follows a group of these zainichi Korean students through a year at school as they try to find their place somewhere between Korea and Japan.
