The David Lam Centre and the Department of Sociology & Anthropology at SFU Harbour Centre-Vancouver Campus present a free screening of

THERE ARE NO WORDS  –  directed by Min Sook Lee (2025, 98 min)

Award-winning filmmaker Min Sook Lee searches for memories of her mother, Song Ji Lee, who died by suicide when Lee was 12 years old. A looming figure in this search is Lee’s now 90-year-old father, who met her mother while serving in a national intelligence agency under dictator Park Chung Hee in 1960s South Korea. Through a fabric of real and imagined histories, Lee reveals that some stories must still be told, even when the words are forgotten.
