Program Note
Director Jeong Ji-yeon’s debut feature, Anchor, is a fine psycho thriller and
social drama that presents the portrait of our society. Se-ra (Chun Woo-hee)
is a famous anchor on a broadcasting system. Right before her show goes
live, she receives a phone call from an unknown female informing she and
her daughter are threatened to be killed. Se-ra ignores it at first thinking it
is a prank. However, when it happens, she realizes it is real and visits the
crime scene to have an exclusive cover story. Every step she makes, she
is under the shadow of her mother So-jeong (Lee Hye-young) who is highhanded
and success-driven. The film follows Se-ra as she tries to find the
truth of the mom and daughter murder case yet focuses on her trauma lying
deep inside her. It delivers intense suspense that is developed with the
danger women are exposed to, obsession with success, and the shadow
of parents. By doing so, it shows the nature of pain in a sharp and wise
manner. (SONG Kyung-won)
