Information


Korean with English Subtitles

Park Chan-wook is a legendary South Korean director known for making movies that are as beautiful as they are shocking. He became well-known with his films Oldboy, The Vengance Trilogy and The Handmaiden, earning a reputation for blending intense suspense with deep, emotional stories. Whether he's filming a revenge thriller or a romance, his work is always visually stunning and thought-provoking.

His new film, No Other Choice, is a dark comedy-thriller about a man being laid off from his job and crushed by a ruthless job market, a veteran paper mill manager spirals into violence in a desperate attempt to reclaim his dignity. It’s a sharp, sometimes funny, and very tense look at how far people will go to survive in today's cutthroat economy. A film not to be missed on the big screen at Pontio.
