Resumo: The present article explores how the experience of the 22nd Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival (BIFAN), in 2018, where the first public screening of a North Korean film took place in South Korea, modified the dynamics of exchanges between the two countries in the film field. Three feature films and six short films produced in North Korea were showcased in a thematic exhibition. A historical overview is provided, starting from the separation of the Korean peninsula in 1945 to the first commercial and people exchanges between the two countries in the 1970s. The evolution of cultural exchanges between the two countries is discussed based on articles from newspapers and specialized film magazines, aiming to contextualize the entire 2018 event and its cultural impact. The implications of this film exhibition in the history of screenings in South Korea, as well as the process they went through to be authorized by the South Korean authorities, are examined. Some other initiatives, specifically those carried out by the Korean Film Council, are addressed to explain the phenomenon. Finally, we argue that the screening of these films within the framework of the 22nd BIFAN represents a significant advancement in the exchange between North Korea and South Korea in the film field and in the symbolic rapprochement between the two countries.

Tres largometrajes y seis cortometrajes producidos en Corea del Norte fueron exhibidos en una exhibición temática durante el 21° BIFAN en 2018. Se hace una retrospectiva, desde la separación de la península coreana en 1945 hasta los primeros intercambios comerciales y de personas entre los dos países en la década de 1970. Se discute la historia de los intercambios culturales entre los dos países y se utilizan artículos de periódicos y revistas especializadas en el campo del cine para contextualizar todo el evento y su impacto cultural. Se discuten las implicaciones de esta exhibición cinematográfica a partir de la historia de estas proyecciones en suelo surcoreano y en relación con el proceso que atravesaron para ser autorizadas por las autoridades surcoreanas. Algunas otras iniciativas, específicamente las llevadas a cabo por el Korean Film Council, están dirigidas a explicar el fenómeno. Se señala en este artículo que la exhibición de estas películas en el marco del 21° BIFAN representa un avance significativo en el campo del intercambio entre Corea del Norte y Corea del Sur en el campo cinematográfico y en el acercamiento simbólico entre ambos países.O presente artigo explora como a experiência do 22º Festival Internacional de Cinema Fantástico de Bucheon (BIFAN) de 2018, onde ocorreu a primeira exibição pública de um filme norte-coreano na Coreia do Sul, modificou a dinâmica das trocas entre os dois países no campo cinematográfico. Foram exibidos três longas e seis curtas-metragens produzidos na Coreia do Norte em uma mostra temática. Faz-se um retrospecto histórico, desde a separação da península coreana em 1945 até as primeiras trocas comerciais e de pessoas entre os dois países na década de 1970. Comenta-se a evolução das trocas culturais entre os dois países até o festival e, a partir de artigos de jornais e revistas especializadas do campo cinematográfico, objetivando contextualizar todo o evento e o seu impacto cultural. Discute-se as implicações dessa mostra de cinema no histórico das exibições em solo sul-coreano, bem como o processo pelo qual estas passaram para serem autorizadas pelas autoridades da Coreia do Sul. Algumas outras iniciativas, especificamente as levadas a cabo pelo Korean Film Council, são abordadas para explicar o fenômeno. Finalmente, argumenta-se que a exibição desses filmes no âmbito do 22º BIFAN representa um avanço significativo no âmbito da troca entre Coreia do Norte e Coreia do Sul no campo cinematográfico e na aproximação simbólica entre os dois países.Socine - Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual2024-01-13info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionTextoArtigo avaliado pelos paresTextoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/otherapplication/pdfhttps://rebeca.socine.org.br/1/article/view/92310.22475/rebeca.v12n2.923Rebeca - Brazilian Journal for Cinema and Audiovisual Studies; Vol. 12 No. 2 (2023): Rebeca 24Rebeca - Revista Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual; Vol. 12 Núm. 2 (2023): Rebeca 24Rebeca - Revista Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual; Vol. 12 No 2 (2023): Rebeca 24Rebeca - Revista Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual; v. 12 n. 2 (2023): Rebeca 242316-9230reponame:Rebeca (São Paulo)instname:Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual (SOCINE)instacron:SOCINEporhttps://rebeca.socine.org.br/1/article/view/923/581Copyright (c) 2023 Gabriel da Silva Pinheiro, Flávia Cesarino Costahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessda Silva Pinheiro, GabrielCesarino Costa, Flávia2024-01-13T13:45:45Zoai:ojs.emnuvens.com.br:article/923Revistahttps://rebeca.socine.org.br/1ONGhttps://rebeca.socine.org.br/1/oairebeca@socine.org.br2316-92302316-9230opendoar:2024-01-13T13:45:45Rebeca (São Paulo) - Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos de Cinema e Audiovisual (SOCINE)false
