A prisoner on death row and a woman who's drawn to his plight go through their own spring, summer, fall and winter of love in Breath, a typically quirky chamber drama by helmer Kim Ki-duk. Nominated for the Golden Palm at Cannes, this emotional tour-de-force from the world-renowned Korean auteur will sweep you away with restrained passions painted in seasonal colors. Award winning actor Chen Chang of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Red Cliff leads an excellent cast that includes Jung-Woo (The Chaser) and Park Ji-a (The Coast Guard).

English What good are excellent actors for Kim Ki-duk, when a picture relying on poetry in the end contains only a minimum of poetry? That’s right, no good. Already the story about lovelorn wives from unbroken, but non-functional families and about a mute criminal sentenced to death who wants to commit suicide doesn’t promise much, but potentially could have made a good movie. However, this time Ki-duk cut it down a real lot and sometimes the result is unbearable. ()
