Missing Pictures : Lee Myung-Se
Lee Myung-Se, Father is gone
Episode 4
Father is Gone could have been Lee Myung-se’s debut film, but slipped into a long hiatus instead. After thirty years directing unprecedented features in Korea like First Love or Nowhere to Hide, Lee finally brings the lost project back to life through VR. Set against the backdrop of a family of three moving to the outskirts of Seoul in the 1960s - where the director himself grew up - Father Is Gone questions the place of the father in traditional Korean culture.
