SCENERY by Zhang Lu

Dear Everybody,

I'm writing to propose a film screening event in the recent weeks.

Ethnic Korean filmmaker Zhang Lu gave the DVD copy of SCENERY to me, his first documentary feature. I watched its short version at Jeonju Film Festival in 2013; but this feature is my first-time as well!

refer to http://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/news/article/Article.aspx?aid=2981586

I think we should watch it together. I might also invite Woojung. Nakane san, Cinematique should show this film as well ha ha ha.

Please tell me when do you think is the best time for the screening; so I could reserve the classroom for it.

NOTE: because it is an informal screening, please do not circulate the information to students outside of our School of Letters. Thank you!


cheers
