A Single Spark 아름다운 청년 전태일, Park Kwang su, 1995

In 1970, a young labor activist in South Korea committed suicide by selfimmolation as a protest against the deplorable conditions under which Korean garmentindustry workers were forced to work. Artfully blending color and b w stock, moving back and forth in time, Park delves into the character of Korean society, past and present, through the investigations of a fictional journalist, an amalgam of three reallife activists, who is writing a biography of the dead Jeon TaeIl a decade after his suicide.
