(HAEBYONUI YOIN, Sang-soo Hong, South Korea 2006, 128 min., Korean/subtitles)

A self-centered film director stuck at a creative impasse travels to a sea resort searching for inspiration. There, he instigates affairs with two women who resemble each other and reveals his awkward, egotistical, and chauvinistic personality in this deadpan comedy of the sexes. “A rueful tale of karmic irony, self-deceived desire, squandered second chances, and unforeseen abandonment”— J. Hoberman, The Village Voice.
