Les Enragés du Cinéma Coréen plot

Like their older American counterparts - Scorcese, Coppola, De Palma and/or Friedkin - a new generation of Korean directors tries to integrate the political turbulence of their country into their work. Directors Chan-wook Park (Oldboy), Jee-won Kim (A Bittersweet Life), Joon-ho Bong (Memories of Murder), Seung-wan Ryoo (Crying Fist) and Ki-duk Kim (The Isle) break the rules genre cinema, just like their American predecessors did in the 1970s. Stirring the atmosphere of political and cultural decay in a wounded and divided Korea, these young filmmakers are experimenting with new cinematographic and narrative formulas that have taken the world by storm.
