      Samaritan Girl--Father's Love And Daughter's Redemption

      I think if this movie is seen as a satire on the lack of social morality, the middle-aged uncle is beastly, and even the junior high school students at the age of daughters are not spared. If this is the only case, then it is too bad for Kim Ki-duk. Which of these films you directed is about normal love? In his movie "Bow," an old man in his 60s raises a little girl with the purpose of marrying her. The story...

      Ethereal and Erotic | Divinity Kim Ki-duk

      Since Kim Ji-duk's sexual assault was revealed, many people have used this as a handle to find the seeds of humanity for the "perverted" and "pornographic" images in Kim Ki-duk's works. In the history of Korean film, Kim Ki-duk must be an extremely alternative and independent existence.

      Kim Ki-deok is a marginal person, born at the bottom of the society. He fled...

      Korean society has never really understood the people, just like a father doesn't understand his daughter

      Really nice looking. I saw guilt, I saw desire, and I saw my father's heartbreak, but the one thing that touched me the most was the lack of communication reflected in this movie! I may love my country very much, but I still can't get rid of the depression, I may love my father very much, but I still have my own pain!

      Some people's criticism is unacceptable to me. From a non-traditional point of view, people’s desires are constantly being liberated, whether it’s lust, appetite, or...

      "Samaria Girl"---The world's hesitation and redemption

      Are worldly desire and innocence necessarily opposites? Is the world really as beautiful as an angel sees it, or as dark as a devil sees it? Kim Ki-deok told us such a story of desire and redemption in "Samaria Girl", who is not hesitant to move forward amid the contradictions in this world.

      All beings are suffering, and who can redeem whom? Yijuan and Jierong plan to travel to Europe together, but they are both high school students, but it is difficult for them to save money. In the...

      [Turn] Who pays who's debt

      Like another 2004 work, The Empty Room, Kim Ki-duk's Samaritan Girl is directly related to the theme of "redemption". It's just that "The Empty Room" is about self-salvation, while "Samarian Girl" is about God's redemption. The Bible says that God can save you only if you save yourself. Kim Ki-deok's two works in 2004 seem to be contradicting the order - under sin (self-sin or worldly sin), when Even when God cannot save you, you can still save yourself.

          In the first part of "The...

    Evaluation action

    "사마리아" uses the tragic story of a compensated dating girl to prove that the filth of the body and the holiness of the soul can magically coexist in one person. Director Kim Kidd’s films always use calm lens language to show extreme cruel images. The deep exploration of humanity and the humanistic care of facing reality make his film style both violent and full of compassion. The subject matter of the film is sensitive and taboo, but...
