Entries

This year, 32 programs from Korea, USA, Thailand, Belgium, Brazil, Japan, etc were invited for SILFVF. One of the exciting things we found out was that more documentaries were made on labor movement than the past few years worldwide. This reflects the rapid changing of the international economic and political structure, the widespread use of digital video by the activists, and the growth of progressive and democratic labor movement on the global level which put great emphasis on international solidarity.

Considering these, SILFVF has been trying to include as many entries as possible, which was not easy task, and now we strongly feel that there must be more regular and stable structure for exchanging the information on this area. SILFVF will try to be a part of the movement for building this kind of information structure worldwide. The main themes for this year's SILFVF are categorized as seven difference sections. Each section has of great importance, but we want to emphasize that the 4th SILFVF made special section on the late Chun Tae Il who burnt himself to death 30 years ago and became the symbol of Korean labor movement.

The following entries will be updated again as soon as remaining entries are decided. (For further information, please contact Myoung Joon Kim at LNP89@CHOLLIAN.NET)
