Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter...and Spring

[Machine Translation] The biggest hit in the history of Korean cinema in the U.S. It shakes your soul and makes your heart cry. A story of four seasons of life filled with tears and emotion. The 2003 film by Kim Ki-duk, a master filmmaker who has depicted human pain, sorrow, and hatred toward society with unique visual beauty and cruelty in films such as "Samaria" and "Bad Man". The world he has created in his ninth film is an aesthetic and emotional "salvation film" that is a complete change from his previous provocative works. A small hermitage on a deep mountain lake. A young child lives peacefully with an elderly monk who watches over him. The story depicts the checkered journey of an innocent child's life as he grows up, from boy to young man, to middle age, and then to adulthood, all set in the beautiful seasons of the hermitage on the water. Enclosed is a press sheet (condensed version) from the film's original release.
