BREATHLESS (2009, 131 minutes)
Winner of several awards at Rotterdam, and winner of ³Best Debut Feature² at
the New York Asian Film Festival, Breathless is uncompromising, two-fisted,
DIY filmmaking at its heartbreaking best. Written, produced, directed and
starring Yang Ik-June (who mortgaged his house to finance the film) this
movie about a shiftless, violent thug drifting through life takes on
emotional weight when he runs up against a schoolgirl, Yeon-Hee, who gives
as good as she gets. Together, these two battered souls form an unlikely
alliance against the world. Lauded by the New York Times as one of this
year¹s real finds, Breathless will hurt you in all the right ways.
