Romance Joe (2011)

LEE Kwang-kuk discusses the relativity of the ‘real’ in film and life with his own critical approach to narrative. The nature of storytelling and the thin line between art and life are revealed with overlapping narratives. And with in this myriad, stories unfold and different strands of one story cohere into an exciting continuity. The stop-and-go rhythms of LEE’s plots create a brilliant fairy-tale continuum all on their own. Director LEE’s whirligig originality and robust characterizations assure international fest play in his first feature film, “Romance Joe”.
