If you loved City of the Rising Sun, try La princesse du désert
Un pont entre un film que tu as déjà vu et un que peu de gens ont croisé. Voici ce qu'ils partagent, et ce que le second fait que le premier ne fait pas.
Ce qu'ils partagent
Both films are directed by Kim Sung-soo, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to City of the Rising Sun, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What La princesse du désert is
You arrive in 1375 as the silent slave in a Korean peace delegation crossing a desert where empires clash. Then the diplomats are branded spies and dumped in isolation. Kim Sung-soo’s widescreen sand and steel evokes a moment when every footstep counts.
