Event details
Details	Y. David Chung, Film Director and Professor, University of Michigan, will show and discuss 'Koryo Saram: The Unreliable People,' a documentary film about Stalin's deportation of Ethnic Koreans to Kazakhstan. Koryo Saram (the Soviet Korean phrase for ethnic Koreans) tells the harrowing saga of survival in the open steppe country through the eyes of deported Koreans, who were designated by Stalin as an 'unreliable people' and enemies of the state. Through recently uncovered archival footage and new interviews, the film follows the deportees' history of integrating into the Soviet system while working under abusive conditions in Kazakhstan, the Soviet republic which became a concentration camp for exiled people from throughout the Soviet Union.
