Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
Young-goon, a patient at a psychiatric clinic, is convinced she is a cyborg. Her life changes the day that Il-soon is admitted. Il-soon believes he possesses the uncanny ability to steal other people’s personality traits and souls. It is not long before a tender romance develops between the two.
The director of Oldboy and The Handmaiden does a romantic comedy! And it’s every bit as out-there as we dared hope. Whimsically demented yet surprisingly empathetic, Park Chan-wook’s electrically-charged tale of love in a mental hospital is a romantic confection mixing the light and the dark.
