#NOWNESSASIAPicks ‘Bi-Mok’ (2024)

-

After her father’s disappearance at sea and her mother’s decision to leave, 12-year-old Soo Ji struggles to live with her grandmother in ‘Bi-mok’ by Baro Lee. Fifteen years later, she returns to her ailing grandmother, hoping to make peace with her past
“There are scenes in the film where Soo Ji and her grandmother are simply eating or watching the sea-these mundane activities are integral to the grieving process. In these everyday moments, they are pulled away from the tragedies of their past and brought closer together in the present”

‘The Fish That Ties It’s Body In Knots’
dir. @ranima.montes
prod. @whosivy & @mimomukii

As part of ‘what ties us apart’ at @blindside_ari

Works included:
The fish that ties its body in knots - written & directed by Ranima Montes
What’s in a Name? - written & directed by Kalu Oji
radiance every day - a contrapuntal poem by Panda Wong
∞ chairs - interactive installation by Helena Inez Abapo

Short Description of the show:
‘what ties us apart’ responds to memories over distance. How malleable they become as we stretch their significance. Something steadfast can disintegrate after a moment, but in the same breath, changed context can allow for growth. Each of these works stand on their own, but are experienced best together.
