BIFF2020 Official Interview
Film l Beyond You
Director l PARK Hong-min
Even if only a man and woman, a street, and an ant are given to director Park Hong-min, he can create a mysterious world of infinite possibilities. It is an extraordinary feature of Park’s films and the charm of his new film Beyond You. Folded memory and time unravel and curl up back and forth, offering an unpredictable thrill. The magic surfaces about 50 minutes after the film begins as the main character Kyungho confronts a young lady, who is the daughter of Insook, his first love. She asks Kyungho if he was her father. The film sails forward after a common melodrama story unfolds into an astonishing maze in our heads. (JUNG Hanseok)
