Chang-dong Lee
Burning - Three's a Crowd
Desire smolders quietly until it turns into obsession.
Jong su reconnects with Hae mi, a woman from his childhood, and becomes drawn into her ambiguous relationship with the wealthy and enigmatic Ben. When Hae mi disappears under mysterious circumstances, Jong su becomes obsessed with uncovering the truth, while Ben’s calm exterior begins to feel increasingly threatening. Lee Chang dong crafts a slow burning psychological mystery about class tension, jealousy and unspoken desire.
Jong su komt opnieuw in contact met Hae mi, een oude bekende die een kortstondige maar intense relatie lijkt te hebben met de mysterieuze en rijke Ben. Wanneer Hae mi plots verdwijnt, raakt Jong su geobsedeerd door wat er werkelijk is gebeurd. Burning ontvouwt zich als een langzaam ontbrandend mysterie over klasseverschillen, onderdrukte emoties en ongrijpbare verlangens.
