A tribute to Hong Sang-soo organised by the C.E.C. of Udine with the screening of his latest three films, unreleased in Italy, for the occasion of the release of his latest feature film In Another Country, distributed by Tucker Film. A “Rohmerian” filmmaker par excellence, he constructs his stories ordered into narrative streams in which the surreal element merges dreams with reality. His films are a tribute to cinema each time and exalt fortuity: “Fortuitous things happen without reason in our lives but we select a few to form a pattern of thought  that makes up what we call reason”.
