The element that makes the film unique though, is its narrative, with Lee using a rather intricate approach to the story, which seems to follow the mentality of Yeon-hong, who manages to lose her mind while standing extremely focused to her purpose

A must - clever, one of the best plots I've seen in a long time. Translation makes it difficult sometimes to keep up but acting is spot on and once the story unravels it'll leave you exhausted.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
