This year, SAVE AS showcases recent restoration projects and archival practices, exploring how national archives safeguard cinematic heritage while expanding international access to historically significant films.

About Nakdong River (1952)
<Nakdong River> was shot and produced during the Korean War, making it an exceptionally rare wartime cinematic work. The film was mislabelled as documentary footage, probably because the title sounded like a nature documentary. It wasn't until the 2020 inspection by the Korean Film Archive that it was finally identified as a feature-length fiction film.
Unlike many films during the war, the original negative survived perfectly intact, greatly enhancing its historical value. The film was digitally restored to UHD (4K) by KOFA in 2021, and it is officially designated as a National Registered Cultural Heritage of Korea.

Set along the Nakdong River defensive line, the film portrays the lives and struggles of people during the war and incorporates actual combat footage. Historians believe this footage was accessible because newsreels were frequently screened in theatres at the time, which adds authenticity and reality to the film.

주캐나다한국문화원은 한국전쟁 중 촬영·제작되고 한국영상자료원(KOFA)에서 디지털 복원한 영화 <낙동강>(1952)의 특별 상영회를 2026년 3월 19일 목요일 오후 7시(동부시간)에 개최합니다. 많은 관심 부탁드립니다.
