Director: Pedro Costa, Hong Sangsoo
2023 / 70min / DCP

A film crew assemble for a shoot on Jeju Island in wintery off-season—and professional and personal conflicts simmer—in Hong’s latest finely detailed, piquantly melancholic study of the interweaving of art and life, which finds the ever-innovative filmmaker experimenting with the pictorial (and metaphoric) possibilities of subtly out-of-focus photography. With The Daughters of Fire, Costa’s unprecedented ethnographic musical triptych depicting three sisters (singers Elizabeth Pinard, Alice Costa, and Karyna Gomes) separated by the volcanic eruption of Fogo, Cape Verde’s highest peak.
