LEE Joon-ik directed Anarchist from Colony in 16 months after his previous Colonial drama, DONGJU; The Portrait of A Poet (2016). Anarchist from Colony is based on the true story of independence fighter PARK Yeol and his Japanese comrade and lover Fumiko, who fought against Japanese imperialism hiding the massacre of 6,000 Koreans in 1923. Audiences have paid attention to actor LEE Je-hoon who gave gripping performances in Architecture 101 (2012) and Bleak Night (2011) and rookie CHOI Hee-seo who has appeared in DONGJU; The Portrait of A Poet and Okja. In addition, as director LEE is famous for periodic films, his latest film offers up moving messages through historical investigations.
