>From the acclaimed director <301, 302>
With a film as erotically charged and aesthetically adventurous as it is
emotionally truthful, veteran director Park Chul-soo brings us the
provocative story of amour fou between a 32-year-old divorcee and a 19-year-
old college student (who under Korean law is considered a minor until he
turns 20).
After being arrested and sentenced to community service for corrupting a
minor, beautiful, enigmatic Moon-hee attempts to ditch handsome young Hyun.
But Hyun refuses to disappear, and the two, magnetically drawn together, go
on the lam, escaping to a hotel room where they rapturously discover each
other through sex that is as raw and intimate as any seen on screen. As the
film progresses, so, too, does their trust in each other and their
confidence in their unorthodox choices. Park brings an extraordinary
intelligence, sensitivity, and spirited lightness to the story of an
egalitarian relationship that continuously defies expectation as the lovers
test the frontiers of sensation, communicate in ineffable ways, and
improvise an unconventional family.
Park shifts stylistic gears with a humorously theatrical, almost surrealist
culminating scene in which an unlikely group--including Moon-hee's feminist
supervisor, her criminal case investigator, and Hyun's entirely accepting
mother--weigh in with Greek chorus-like opinions on this rare partnership.
Full of stylistic surprises and magical moments, Green Chair is a
celebration of living in the moment and a profound meditation on maturity
and innocence.- Caroline Libresco

Screen International presents
European Film Finance Summit
Europe's New Money
Thursday 10 February 2005, The Ritz-Carlton, Berlin, Germany
----------------------------------------
Book your place at Screen International's European Film Finance
Summit
Only 1 month left to book at http://www.screendaily.com/eurofinance
There is no shortage of film finance in Europe. New sources of cash
are being opened up as private equity financiers become more
interested and as national and regional organisations open tax and
credit schemes. The Hollywood studios are also demonstrating
increased interest in European production. The trouble is that many
of these initiatives look better on paper than they do when you try
to use them.
This crucial one-day symposium examines the array of funding schemes
and helps European film-makers to use them practically. It also asks
how Europeans can profit from their success and build businesses.
Key speakers include:
- Richard Fox, Executive VP International, Warner Bros
- Antonia Bird, Director, 4Way Pictures
- Eberhard Junkersdorf, Producer/director, President, Neue Bioskop
Film Fund
- Jim Stern, Founder and President, Endgame Entertainment
- Todd Wagner, Partner, 2929 Productions
- John Woodward, CEO, UK Film Council
And many more
