Audience Member Uno spaccato della Corea degli anni '80: le insurrezioni studentesche, il sindacalismo nascente, le dinamiche classiste, il machismo, la violenza, la teoria contro la realtà... In un impasto perfettamente amalgamato con la componente melodrammatica. Le inquadrature evocative e significative calano i personaggi in un mondo oscuro, vicolo cieco della società. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
