Movie
Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter...and Spring
Synopsis
South Korean filmmaker Kim Ki-Duk directs the chamber drama Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter...and Spring. Made up of five segments (in keeping with its title), the movie is set entirely on a tiny monastery floating in a lake surrounded by mountains and trees. "Spring" starts with a young monk (Seo Jae-gyeong) learning from an old monk (Oh Yeong-su). "Summer" involves the monk as a young man (Kim Yeong-min), exploring love and sex with a young woman (Ha Yeo-jin), who spends a short time at the monastery in order to heal. The director plays the monk himself as an angry adult in "Fall" and again as he redeems himself in "Winter." In the final segment, "Spring," a new baby is left at the monastery to start the story over again. Spring premiered at the 2003 Locarno Film Festival.
