Movie #1885 ........................."In Absence "

Movie #1885 "In Absence" --- what a tough one to watch --- mostly my mouth was open in amazement --- very powerful and kept my interest!  It concerns the S. Korean ferry, the Sewol, which sent a mayday that it was sinking, 5 minutes later there is footage of the captain leaving the ship, and then rescue boats and we just sit and watch nothing done while 200+ passengers were locked in their cabins and drowning.  What a ridiculously bungled situation occurred and we just watch it unfold.  I give it a 5 out of 5.






"IN ABSENCE"     28 minutes        2018

Documents the sinking of a South Korean Ferry. As a result of the ineptitude of the first response to the emerging situation, hundreds of people, mostly children lost their lives

Director:

 Seung-jun Yi
