A ride to your unforgettable tragedy

Life is a train heading to the last station called Death.

2004. 07.16 11:50 pm. The last train… Unforgettable tragedy will begin.

On July 16, 1988, a train accident which drives 100 people to death occurs. Without finding the cause or the accident, the case becomes a mystery and soon gets forgotten.

After 16 years of the accident, the last train of the day is ready to take off at its platform as the rain is pouring. A train attendant Mi-sun is on board first time at work and the train leaves its platform as scheduled and rapidly gains the full speed. All of sudden, it stops for 10 minutes without any reason, and restarts. However, when it begins to run, everything is totally different from 10 minutes ago. All she can see is from the 80’s and old newspaper with the date written July 16, 1988. Does she see an illusion, or reality? If this unbelievable scene is reality, where is she indeed? What happened during the 10 minutes when the train stopped and where are they headed to?

Green Chair

Cast: Suh Jung (‘The Isle’, ‘Spider Forrest’), SHIM Ji-ho

*Market Screening – May 17 / 14:00 / Olympia 3

2005 Sundance Int’l FF Competition

2005 Berlin Int’l FF Panorama

After being arrested and sentenced to community service for corrupting a minor, beautiful, enigmatic Moon-hee (SUH Jung) 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.

“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 from Sundance 2005
