The London East Asia Film Festival season of films presented at The Cinema Museum continues with the South Korean drama The Widow (1955), directed by Park Nam-ok.

A war widow struggles to raise her child alone while facing poverty and social judgment in post-war Korea. Her vulnerability draws the attention of men, but each encounter exposes the fragility of survival and female dignity. This pioneering film, directed by Korea’s first woman filmmaker, speaks to resilience in hardship.

75 mins. Korean with English subtitles.

Doors open at 17.00, for a 18.00 start.

Refreshments will be available in our licensed cafe/bar.
