Kim Ki-Duk's "Pieta" won the Golden Lion in Venice.
Apparently it's the story of a lonely man who is approached by a woman that claims she is his mother that abandoned him when he was a child. The story that ensues looks very much like a Greek tragedy.
"God, have mercy on us" finishes the trailer.
What is it about Korean cinema and archetypical tragic plots? I am sure someone could do a phycho-social study on the Korean psyche and tell us the answer. For me, watching their painfully tragic movies is quite enough.
