FROM tomorrow to next Tuesday, Premiere Cinema at Jing’an Kerry Center and Palace Cinema at Shanghai IFC Mall will be showcasing five acclaimed films from South Korea.
The line-up includes action-packed cop comedy “Veteran,” crime thriller “The Classified File,” drama “Madonna,” romantic comedy “Right Now, Wrong Then” and the lyrical “A Midsummer’s Fantasia.”
“Veteran,” directed by Ryoo Seung-wan, is one of South Korea’s highest grossing films of all time. Its plot centers on a tough detective’s investigation into the death of a driver.
“Right Now, Wrong Then,” a bittersweet film from Hong Sang-soo, won the Golden Leopard award at the 2015 Locarno International Film Festival.
“The Classified File” is based on a true story and focuses on a detective and a shaman searching for a missing child using fortune-telling.
Mystery drama “Madonna” was screened in the Un Certain Regard section of the 2015 Cannes Film Festival.
“A Midsummer’s Fantasia” is a collaboration between South Korean director Jang Kun-jae and Japanese filmmaker Naomi Kawase. The film has two parts, each focusing on a separate love story.
