Gilsoddeum is a 1986 South Korean drama film directed by Im Kwon-taek.[1] It was entered into the 36th Berlin International Film Festival.[2]

Plot[]

In 1983 KBS launched a campaign to reunite families torn apart in the Korean War three decades earlier. In an expert dissection of the social and familial rifts in modern Korea, director Im Kwon-taek integrates footage from the campaign into the story of Hwa-yeong, who leaves her middle-class life in Busan to search for the son she lost in Gilsotteum during the war.[3]
