Swing Diary

Nan Lee / Republic of Korea (South Korea) / 1996 / Czech Premiere / 13 min.

synopsis

Nan Lee originally intended to make a documentary about Korean jazz when he became fascinated by the possibilities of improvisation and decided to make a film about life instead. A story about money, porn, and animated agony, it connects documentary and fiction and, with exaggeration and subversive energy, takes a look into the everyday life of a bored young man.

“The film shows how we subconsciously improvise on our journey through life and move to the rhythm of those around us.” Nan Lee
