Country - South Korea [2010]
The film opens into feudal Korea with an outlaw recounting his tale to a writer. A rigid class system exists in a time when brothels are socially accepted as a form of entertainment, particularly among the royalty. This is the backdrop for a triangle between a royal, his servant & an ambitious singer at the brothel. The story runs a slow, melodious pace, punctuated with moments of levity as hearts change sides and events take their turns. An entertaining story with a mildly grim conclusion.
