"The work is a found footage work: i.e., a montage of short clips from existing films. The films are from all over the world, including Fran c e, mainland China, Hong Kong, India, the US, etc. Each of the clips shows an image of a clock marking the time. The work lasts for 24 hours, and it is synchronized with the time of the location where it is shown. For instance, if you see the work in London and it is now 11:25 AM, then you will see on the screen a clock or watch pointing at exactly that time. It has been shown in London, New York, and Venice. It received an award in Venice. " - Hector RODRIGUEZ http://www.whitecube.com/exhibitions/cm/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Marclay

Synopsis Bellmaker Seok-seung (Heo Jang-kang), whose most famous handiwork is the legendary bell of Goryeong Temple, is living out his old age at a temple with a young woman named Young-sil (Moon Jeong-suk) as his neighbor. One day, Young-sil hears about Seok-seung's past. The grandson of a famous bellmaker, Seok-seung works as a servant. He promises his lover Ok-bun (Moon Jeong-suk) that he will make a bell with the most beautiful sound in the world, and when Ok-bun suddenly dies, he sets about fulfilling his promise to her. He studies bellmaking for over a decade. Wandering the country following his teacher's death, Seok-seung meets a widow (Moon Jeong-suk) and settles down with her. His grandfather had committed suicide after losing to a rival bellmaker; Seok-seung steals the bell made by the rival artisan along with his grandfather's bell and runs off with them. While he is endeavoring to create the world's finest bell, his wife dies in childbirth. Continuing his pursuit of the perfect bell, Seok-seung finally succeeds in forging the most beautiful-sounding bell in the world by melting his grandfather's bell and the rival artisan's bell together, but he loses his daughter. Meanwhile, as she listens to Seok-seung's tale, Young-sil begins to wonder if he is actually her long-lost father. Growing up as an orphan, she remembers hearing that her father was also a bellmaker. At the time, Japan is fighting in the Second World War and commandeering all the iron in Korea for its military campaign. The bell at Goryeong Temple also comes under threat of seizure. Fearing for its fate, Seok-seung tries to remove the bell and hide it, but falls down a cliff in the attempt and draws his last breath in Young-sil's arms. Notes Alternating between present and past through Seok-seung's and Young-sil's flashbacks, The Bell Tower relies on voice-over narration by each character to tell the story of their lives. This device gives the audience the impression of listening to an old tale. The Bell Tower may well be the first major Korean film to employ a structure that combines voice-over narration with flashback sequences. As revealed in film reviews of the time, The Bell Tower affords glimpses of the considerable effort the filmmakers put into, instilling something "uniquely Korean" in its content and imagery. It is an impressive movie that unostentatiously depicts the premodern artisan's stubborn passion for his work and the realizations and regrets brought about by time. The performances of Heo Jang-kang and Moon Jeong-suk, the latter delivering an impassioned turn in three different roles, also make The Bell Tower a standout. It is the first Korean film to be made for submission to foreign film festivals.

相传在五代十国，江南一隅遭受霸王潮肆扰，水患不断，洪水滔天。百姓因此流离失所，苦不堪言。吴越国君钱鏐王协同当地百姓一同抗击灾难，保护家园。此情此景感天动地，一口“龙音神钟”由水路漂来，抵达七宝镇。 潮水退去，七宝镇更是从此名声大振，繁荣富足，成为江南名镇，远近闻名。 当地百姓视神钟为宝物，搭建钟楼，将其安置于其中。因氽水而来，故取名曰“氽来钟”，代代相传。 岁月流转，匆匆而过，转眼间已是四百年后。 某个春日，书画大家赵孟然奉命来到七宝，寻访江南美景、搜罗奇闻轶事。赵孟然被七宝秀美的景致和充满神奇色彩的民间传说深深着迷，流连忘返。可是他却没有料到，从自己来到七宝镇的那天起，已经不知不觉地卷入了一场蓄谋已久的阴谋之中…… 当地恶霸秦事功窥视“氽来钟”已久，一直妄图占为己有，于是便以自己的势力相要挟，逼迫知县陆祥翎将神钟从七宝寺偷偷运走。陆祥翎虽有微词，但性格软弱的他却迫于压力只好无奈答应。 云游和尚空过预感七宝镇将遭遇一场劫难，于是便马不停蹄地赶到七宝镇。赵孟然来到七宝寺，当他撞响氽来钟时，神钟出现奇异现象，放出金光。空过发觉在这个年轻人的身上不仅有着一股浩然正气，而且似乎与神钟有着不解之缘，相信他能为保护神钟助一臂之力。 赵孟然的突然出现显然打乱了秦事功原本天衣无缝的偷钟计划。可秦事功仍旧一意孤行，誓要偷取宝钟，原来在秦事功的背后还藏匿着一股更为神秘的邪恶势力。他警告秦事功，赵孟然可能会让他们之前的万无一失变成全盘皆输！ 秦事功视赵孟然为眼中钉、肉中刺，但却碍于其朝廷命官的身份，不便强取豪夺，便设计阴谋诡计，想尽一切办法要将赵孟然赶出七宝镇。 赵孟然与青梅竹马的儿时同窗、陆知县的千金静女相约出游，遭到秦事功派出的刺客追杀，静女被掳走。秦事功以其为人质胁迫陆知县加快“运钟”进程。 秦事功如愿以偿，得到神钟。陆祥翎苦苦哀求其放过自己女儿，秦事功目露凶光，出尔反尔，杀陆祥翎以灭口。 赵孟然和空过过关斩将，突破重重阻挠，终于来到关押静女的密室，将其救出。 赵孟然、空过、静女决心与秦事功做最后一搏。这时，天空出现“天狗食月”的异像，秦事功身上的妖气渐渐显现。人们这才知道藏在其背后的真相——四百年前，妖孽附身秦事功身体，等待时机卷土重来。 危急时刻，赵孟然敲响神钟，时光倒转回到四百年前。赵孟然阻止了妖魔附身秦事功的阴谋，更阻止了四百年后劫难的发生。

Based on the legend of the Shinjong, a massive bell now in Kyeongju, which was cast during the reign of King Seong-deok in order to stop a war. Each person in the region contributed to be smelted into the bell, except for one woman who had nothing to give. However the first time it was cast, the bell would not ring. It was determined that it was because not everyone had contributed something, so the woman offered her newborn child which she sacrificed into the molten metal. The bell was completed and successfully tolled, preventing a war but to this day, the bell's reverberations sound like a baby wailing.
