This is a most extraordinary film! Though shot on digital video, this film offers up so many profound, beautiful images. It is considered a science fiction film, but in the vein of Tarkovsky, not Ridley Scott.
It is set in the future in Korea, where a virus erases memories. The main character, Anna, returns to Korea, hoping to erase her past. The Korean director trained under Kieslowski, and this is a very European film, in many ways. It is one of those rare films you don't watch, but experience. There is one, extended scene towards the end of the film which is one of the most extraordinary moments I have witnessed in cinema. I won't explain it. It will stay with you long after watching the film.
A profound, beautiful film.
A masterpiece. |
