To wrap up its 7th edition, the 7th Aaaargh Retro Film Festival leaves Japan behind for one final thrill ride from South Korea: Colony, the new film by Yeon Sang-ho.
The closing ceremony will also feature the presentation of awards for the short film competition, honoring the winners from both the Belgian and international selections. It will be a moment to celebrate the films, the creative teams, and the unique visions that defined this year’s festival.
Having gained international acclaim with Train to Busan, Yeon Sang-ho returns to the realm of tense, spectacular survival cinema—this time amidst an outbreak where collective fear spreads as rapidly as the virus itself. It is the perfect closing film to cap off five days of discovery, bodies in crisis, genre cinema, and shared experiences in the dark.
