Eun-hee is an actress whose acting is poor, but she also plays in her real life. Her performance full of lies helps her feel she creates different personalities each time she dates separate men. Eventually a pack of her lies is tangled up and everything is about to be messed up. Ryohei, a Japanese writer, visits Seoul for his book launch party. He often writes stories that push characters into a corner before making it a tragedy. Ryohei meets Eun-hee by chance, who is in a trouble, just like his novels.
A QUIET DREAM 춘몽
Sunday July 16th • 7:30PM • Innis Town Hall
Director: Zhang Lu
South Korea • Korean with English subtitles • Trailer
Three men around a woman, and their unusual way of expressing their emotion.
In the centre of Seoul, contrary to the fancy buildings, still there’s a poor town called Su-saek. And there are three special losers; Ik-june, a gang expelled by laughing at leader’s funeral, Jung-bum, a North Korean defector with depression, Jong-bin, an epileptic who only drinks milk. They call each other patient. Three of them frequent a small bar in the town to win the heart of a charming bar lady, Ye-ri. One day, Ye-ri asks what they dreamt last night. While each of them tells their nightmares, Ye-ri tells them she had a uniqe dream; that she made love to each of them.
