Welcome to Dongmakgol (2005) is set during the Korean War in 1950. Soldiers from both the North and South Korea, as well as an American pilot, find themselves in a secluded village, its residents largely unaware of the outside world, including the war.

Korean filmmaker and screenwriter Jang Jin wrote the screen play for the movie and the theatrical play that the movie is based on. Director Jang is scheduled to be present for a question and answer session after the screening.

A reception will be held from 6 - 6:30 pm in the Global and International Studies Building Atrium.
