The South Korean film Female War: I am Pottery (also known as Yeo-ja Jeon-jaeng: Bi-yeol-han geo-lae ), released in September 2015, is a drama part of the Female War series based on the work of manhwa artist Park In-kwon. Film Overview Directed by Jin-soo Noh
The phrase “female war” suggests a conflict fought without declared battles: gendered violence, reproductive rights, domestic labor, or the war of self-definition against inherited roles. By stating “i am pottery,” the artist claims an identity as both creator and created—malleable, fired, fragile, and enduring. The number “01” marks this as an origin point, a primal utterance in ceramic form.
, the story follows a young woman who enters into a high-stakes, unconventional arrangement to help her husband.
Dae-geun agrees to donate his eyes to Ha-rim, but his price is high: he demands a sexual affair with Sun-yeong before he dies. This "nasty deal" sets off a chain of emotional and psychological consequences as Sun-yeong struggles with her duty to her husband and the horrific cost of his cure. Key Details September 2015.
