QFT is delighted to present a selection of films from the London Korean Film Festival as part of their 2016 UK tour.

Inspired by real events, Yim Soon-rye’s drama was a smash hit in Korea with 4 million admissions in six weeks.

Based on the true story of Korea’s 2004 women’s Olympic handball team and their moment in the spotlight in Athens, Forever the Moment's focus is as much on the private affairs of the players as their on court antics, exploring the bittersweet relationship between personal and professional lives, as the women struggle to maintain their families whilst upholding their country’s Olympic dreams.

Sensitively handled, beautifully realised and ultimately very moving, this is a sports movie quite unlike any other.

35mm screening. Age: 12+
