Minji MA(they/them)
Minji Ma is a Korean director and essayist based in Seoul whose work merges research-based practice with a queer, feminist, and class-conscious lens. Their films resist binary categorizations, instead weaving together personal and political narratives to expose the layered complexities of identity and history. Their storytelling uncovers the nuances often overlooked in dominant discourse by intertwining micro-histories with broader social structures.
Their debut feature documentary, Family in the Bubble (South Korea/Finland), received awards at the EBS International Documentary Festival and an honorable mention at the Toronto Reel Asian International Film Festival. The film was also broadcast on Yle and NHK World. They are an alum of IDFAcademy and Chicken & Egg Pictures.
