Director Park Chan-wook took home the Best Director award at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival for this inventive thriller.

From a mountain peak in South Korea, a man plummets to his death. Did he jump, or was he pushed? When detective Hae-joon (Park Hae-il) arrives on the scene, he begins to suspect the dead man’s wife Seo-rae (Tang Wei). But as he digs deeper into the investigation, he finds himself trapped in a web of deception and desire.

(2022, dir. Park Chan-wook, Korean and Chinese with English subtitles, DCP, color, 138 min. Courtesy MUBI)
