Special Screening of The Unjust @The Museum of the Moving Image

The Korea Society and the newly renovated Museum of the Moving Image present The Unjust, part of Korean Cinema Now, on New York City’s hottest state-of-the-art screen. Earlier this year, the Museum of the Moving Image and The Korea Society embarked on an exciting run of new work, with highlights from the Busan International Film Festival, that has been warmly received by audiences and the film media. The Unjust is director Ryoo Seung-wan’s dramatic take on police corruption and features an investigator on the hot seat and a vindictive prosecutor. It is his most successful project yet, earning its place in the top-ten box office list. Director Ryoo is considered one of the best action-film directors in Korea. He debuted in 1996 with the short film Transmutated Head, and went on to make features including Die Bad in 1998, No Blood No Tears in 2002, Arahan in 2004, and City of Violence in 2006.
