'In Another Country' On Korean DVD

 

DS Media have announced the Korean DVD release of 'In Another Country' for the 20th September, 2012. Directed by Hong Sang-Soo, the film includes elements that one can always expect from the Korean auteur: Alcohol, misbehaving men, and multiple variations of the same narrative.

Synopsis

In her first foray into Asian cinema, Huppert plays Anne, the heroine of three different short films penned by a young film student in a quiet seaside town. In the first story, Huppert is French director on a vacation with a Korean filmmaker and his wife. Then, she becomes the wife of a businessman on a secret rendezvous with a Korean man. Finally, she is a recent divorcee who is brought to the town by a friend (Yoon Yeo Jeong). Despite the three drastically different stories, they all revolve the same characters: An awkward innkeeper who gives bad directions, a friendly lifeguard who often crosses the line into creepy, and a lighthouse that seems to be impossible to find.

Artwork and trailer are below, and you can preorder the DVD now from YesAsia.com.
