Korean cinema's female heritage is yet to have been truly explored and appreciated, which is something that director Shin Su-won clearly aims to rectify with “Hommage” (2021). The film is as much about Korean cinema's past as its present, celebrating the pioneering female directors of old whilst scolding the system that oppressed them. With her sixth solo feature, Shin explores the troubles faced by modern female filmmakers in Korea while also saluting the country's trailblazing woman directors.
