Plot

A woman visits a man on death row.

Sinekatalog’s take

Kim Ki-duk's quiet, strange drama has a death-row inmate and a lonely wife visiting him through four seasons. Sparse, eerie and tender, with Chang Chen speaking not a word, it is a minimalist romance of loneliness.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
