Synopsis:
When an entire generation embraces the concepts and sentiments a writer expresses
in a novel, that’s the clear sign of a masterpiece. Jo Se Hee’s 1976 short novel
A Ball Shot by a Midget was born in a period when the government actively censored
popular culture. The themes presented in the novel, such as the conditions of labor
workers and their movement in the 70s, made such an impression at the time that the
student movement of the 80s used this text as a sort of manifesto.

Midget Kim Bul Yi managed to build a happy family despite economic difficulties and
social discrimination. Forced to move out of town when the ocean water becomes too
polluted, his family is cheated by a real estate agent and their life is thrown upside
down, until Bul Yi’s daughter tries to get the rights to their house back. Starring the
legendary Sung-kee Ahn (Hanbando), A Ball Shot by a Midget was recently voted among the
best ten Korean films of all time in an online poll, which is perhaps some measure of
consolation for the filmmakers. The film almost broke the all-time record at the Dae Jong
Film Awards, having received nominations in all categories, but three hours before
airtime all the nominations were canceled, leaving the director and cast speechless.
