The film will be followed by a poetry reading by Emily Jungmin Yoon, the author of A Cruelty Special to Our Species (2018). The event will conclude with a Q&A with the filmmaker and poet in attendance.\n\nFor more information and registration, visit https://empiresinmotion.com/\n\nThis special event is sponsored by the Center for Korean Studies, the Center for Japanese Studies, the Department of East Asian Languages & Literatures, the Department of History, and the Department of Asian Studies.
