Ending The Korean War: Screening Two Films Wednesday, May 8th, 7:00 PM - 9:30 PM James Bridges Theater at UCLA For More Information Please Contact Sejung Kim: [email protected] Free Event!
This year marks the 60th anniversary of the signing of the Korean Armistice, which temporarily halted the fighting, yet failed to officially end the Korean War. We will show two documentary films on the impact of the unending Korean War and discuss it with the filmmakers. "Memory of Forgotten War" and "The Woman, The Orphan and The Tiger". <http://ucla.in/12Qid3f> Memory of Forgotten War: introduces audiences to the lived experience and legacies of the Korean War, as four Korean American war survivors share deeply personal accounts of events preceding, during, and following the fighting.
