The 11th edition of KFFC 2024 starting from May 22nd to 31st is on the captivating new theme “Arts & Technologies: Sleep, Dream, and Body” co-hosted with the Moving Image Research Lab’s Sociability of Sleep Project at McGill University.
“The Sociality of Sleep” project aims to bridge academic research on the social dimensions of sleep with art. It explores how personal experiences intersect with social issues such as productivity, racial and gender inequalities, and medicalization. We will further explore the intersection of creative works and technological advancements through Asian cinema and media art, encompassing both present and future visual cultures, alongside our audience.
KFFC highlights films and media artworks delving into Korean, pan-Asian, and Asian Canadian perspectives, without limitations on nations or art disciplines. For the past four years, KFFC has focused on themes like “Women’s Perspectives” and “Environments of Sustainability and Resilience,” showing lived stories through the arts.
