The Whispering Trees

A documentary about 90-year-old KIM Mal-hae who never gives up on life even on the threshold of death. This film depicts tragic moments in Korean society starting with the National Bodo League Massacre and the more recent struggle against the building of transmission towers in Miryang, revealing the sometimes silent and sometimes defiant personal struggle of one elderly woman. “If only I could read, then my life would have a beginning and end” is the start of what will be Mal-hae’s first and last confession.
