[SHOT]Yul's Choice
Forest
Orchard: Gu-jung, Tae-shik and Esther are neighbourhood childhood friends. The three of them meet after a long time and go on a picnic to an orchard. They start to play Truth or Dare and try to learn each other’s hidden secrets. A subtle emotional conflict is experienced among them during this time. Forest: Gu-jung and Tae-shik go deep into the mountain to shoot a movie. Tae-shik directs and acts out a scene where a man commits suicide. But due to an accident, he actually gets hung from a tree by his neck. Gu-jung quickly tries to lift Tae-shik up, but Tae-shik loses consciousness. The deep forest gets darker and darker and no one is in sight. Gu-jung slowly loses strength in his hands.
Bargain
The film is terribly shameless and nonchalant. In all aspects, including in acting, directing, content, and method, even in its method of handling the theme. The short 14 minutes dealing with the business of underage prostitution is filled with a cunning change in character relationship, a tumultuous wave of emotions, and even an unexpected twist. And all this was surprisingly taken in just one shot. The film is full of bewitching magical moments in one long take (BISFF)
