The Sewol Mothers: Three Years of Waiting (2017x45)

Data de estreia: Jul 01, 2017

The Sewol, a South Korean passenger ferry, sank in 2014. 295 people died in the tragedy. Many were high school students on a field trip. Mothers of victims whose bodies were not recovered lived at a port near the accident site for the 3 years to be close to their loved ones. They steadfastly campaigned for a search to be conducted for those still trapped inside the ferry. We document their struggle.
