Sky, Wind, Stars and the Island
Documentary filmmaker Kim Myung-yoon, a former member of the Dokdo Police Security Detachment, relocates with his wife and son, Noah, to Kumi, a remote village in Japan’s Oki Islands. A UNESCO Global Geopark, the Oki Islands boast majestic natural beauty, but also serve as a politically charged symbol, with Japan asserting territorial claims over Dokdo, calling it, “Takeshima.” As Kim builds relationships with local residents and engages with their perspectives, he explores the histories, ecologies, and memories surrounding Dokdo and the Oki Islands.
