Product Overview

At a 2014 Brisbane screening of Korea's oldest extant film, Crossroads of Youth, David Crewe witnessed more of a 'remix' – complete with narrator taking poetic licence – than something that reeks of historical authenticity. In this piece, he delved into the silent cinema of Korea and the central role played in it by the figure of the byeonsa.
