"If you could choose to work in a movie site "House of Hummingbird" or "Parasite", where would you choose? "
I asked this question to many of my movie lover friends. Be cause it was in a theater at same time and critics loved both movies. But "House of Hummingbird" was well-known for poor working conditions and on the other hand "Parasite" was well-known for good working conditions. First, most of my friends chose "Parasite" even though they liked the other more. However I added one more to the question. "If you don't work on the site of "House of Hummingbird, Movie might not be finished." Then most of my friends said they will work even with poor working conditions.
We, me and my friends who support the movie women's movie are very serious about showing ticket powers to movie companies. In Korea, It is real to see women directors in major movie scenes. I know most countries are having the same problem but we are taking this seriously. So the second condition I asked my friends was not only some of my mean characteristics to make friends in trouble but want to see my friends feel the same as me that they are prioritizing women's movies more than any other movies.
So, the movie is about a middle school student named Eun-hee. Her family doesn't show interest in her and even her brother hits her. Outside of her school and house she is more cheerful. She has a friend who is also a victim of violence and a boyfriend, nice to her, these two make her alive. One day, She meets a new teacher who is even polite to youth.
The movie is very quiet unlike the Oscar award movie. Even the romance is not sweet. But why my friends liked it was because it was about us. Most of us are not important in the family if there is a brother. And not like unrealistic fantasy high teen movies it makes us feel comfortable. If you are Korean movie lover you will know there are not many teenage movies in Korea. Because the older generation didn't think school life was important. Important thing is going to a good college. We don't think it's true. It is possible I want to make precious memories with friends and family and not be ignored by parents and teachers with my test score. The Movie was hard to watch, it was very real. Many people feel helpless and lonely on these days.
Yes, we want to see more movies that talk about us - Korean women- like something even if it is miserable and lonely.
