I Love Films That Make Me Think About Life

Secret Sunshine (South Korea, 2007)

After her husband's death, a young woman and her kid try to start my a new life in the time when he was born. However, misfortune gets in her way again, and she searches for shelter in religion.

If I was asked from which country the best movies in 21st century come from, I would say South Korea. However, from what I see from films, it is one of the last places on Earth I would like to live in. An apparently clean and orderly society, a modern country, but a lot of loneliness, hidden rage and dormant insatisfaction that only comes out after some glasses of liquour or heavy misfortune.

Is it Korea...or is it the world?

@novembermoon Hahaha. Koreans are quite interesting for an anthropological study.
