Synopsis

On the verge of demolition, the former U.S. military camptowns of northern Gyeonggi Province echo with the distant sounds of artillery fire and combat helicopters. The camera descends through a forest crowded with nameless—or barely named—graves into the ruins of a ghostly landscape. The memories of three women return through different forms: testimony before the camera, spoken letters and drawings, and a body wandering through the spaces of the past like a ghost. As different temporal layers begin to unfold, Tour of Duty sets out on a journey of duty through a historical landscape long kept out of sight.

 

철거를 앞둔 경기 북부의 미군 기지촌. 멀찌감치 포성과 전투헬기 소리가 울려퍼지고, 카메라는 이름 없는, 혹은 이름만 남은 무덤들이 그득한 숲을 지나 폐허가 된 기지촌의 풍경으로 내려온다. 세 여성의 기억은 서로 다른 형식으로 되돌아온다. 카메라 앞의 증언, 말로 된 편지와 그림, 유령처럼 과거의 장소들을 떠도는 몸. 서로 다른 시간의 층위가 열리는 가운데, 〈거미의 땅〉은 오랫동안 보이지 않았던 역사의 풍경 속으로 의무의 여행을 떠난다.
