Always one to raise questions and highlight societies problems concerning sexual identity Leesong Hee-il has made a name for himself helping to bring queer cinema to the masses. Night Flight was created in response to CCTV footage of a victim of bullying who committed suicide which had a profound impact around the world and especially with director Hee-il who remembers crying when first seeing the video. The footage moved the director to exam the effects of Korea’s ‘cutthroat’ school environments and what that is doing to the nations youth.
