If you loved Sopyonje, try The Taebaek Mountains
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Im Kwon-taek, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Sopyonje, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Taebaek Mountains is
You wake in a mountain village where land deeds hide deeper debts. Then night soil carts block the road and a funeral procession collapses into fistfights. Im’s camera follows the ink along paper trails until the past rides home on a borrowed horse. Takes the 1930s drought and turns it into a ledger of grudges.
