Hahaha

Korean writer and director Hong Sang-soo delivers a poignant film full of heart and humor. Two friends discuss life and relationship over lunch with some of the same characters unknown to each other since they don't reveal any names. One is a married man who's has an affair with another woman, the other a bachelor who has fallen in love for woman whom he persuades to seduce. Sang-soo keeps the story unfolding without losing the interest as each character reveal himself through his story that's funny and tragic yet utterly human and universal. Original story telling and fully developed characters with a talented cast and crew makes this film stand out and proves that Korean cinema is still kicking strong. YRCinema's coverage of the AFI Fest.
