ABOUT THE FILM: “The Daughters of Fire,” 2023, Dir. Pedro Costa, 9 Min, Cinemaguild, Portugal In Portuguese with English subtitles. Three young sisters are set apart by the eruption of Fogo. But they sing. One day we’ll know why we live and why we suffer… FORMAT: DCP IN WATER, 2023, Dir. Hong Sangsoo, 61 Min, Cinemaguild, South Korea In Korean with English subtitles. A trio of friends venture to the rocky shores of a large island to shoot a film together. The director, Seongmo, recently gave up acting and has decided to make a film with his own money. His former classmate, Sangguk, will operate the camera and Namhee will act in it. The only problem: Seongmo hasn’t decided what to make. His most overtly experimental work to date, IN WATER reveals Hong at the height of his illusory powers. The story is simple: three friends set out to make a film, and then they do it. But with bold formal choices and his signature impulse toward the uncanny, Hong evokes infinite mysteries and hints at whole worlds lurking below the surface of everyday reality. FORMAT: DCP
