Plot
His first film, four linked characters.
Sinekatalog’s take
Hong Sang-soo's debut interweaves four characters' stories of desire, infidelity and failure in a loose, repetitive structure. Wry and cold, it is a bold first film that sets his lifelong themes in place.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
