SYNOPSIS
In October 2015, the evicted residents who had imprisoned on a false charge of killing a policeman assembled in a place for the first time after the Yongsan Disaster six years ago. They had occupied a watchtower and in protest against violent suppressio. Their colleagues had died, and they became criminals. The delight of meeting again lasts only briefly. The ‘comrades’ rip out cruel words while blaming each other
DIRECTING INTENTION
In 2009, a fire broke out during an unprepared and immediate suppression and took the lives of five tenants and one SWAT member. Two Doors, the previous work, strived to reconstruct the truth of this incident from the police officers’ perspective and drew audiences totaling seventy six thousand, a record-breaking success as a Korean independent documentary film. It subsequently directed the filmmakers to make a follow-up work from the evictees’ point of view. This film, The Remnants, revisits the bare face of the state violence through the shattered lives of the survivors.
