She will be in conversation with film critic Anton Bitel (Sight and Sound).

Moon So-ri started her career on stage before starring in Lee Chang-dong’s Peppermint Candy in 2000. With her second feature, Oasis, also directed by Lee Chang-dong, she caught the attention of fans and critics across the world. Her portrayal of a woman suffering from cerebral palsy earned the actress her first major award at the 2002 Venice Film Festival. Moon continued to take on challenging roles in Im Sangsoo’s A Good Lawyer’s Wife, and Hong Sangsoo's recent films Hahaha and Hill of Freedom. Always defying convenient labels, the actress has embarked on filmmaking and teaching.

CREAM SCREENS is a series of screenings and conversations featuring the best of contemporary global film and artists’ moving image, and yet to be discovered pioneers of cinema’s global histories.
