[Machine Translation] Far more than the impact of "Old Boy"! Director Park Chan-wook's most problematic work! A story of a priest and a married woman who fall into sinful love, colored with blood and eroticism. The film, which took more than 10 years in preparation, is the first Korean film to be co-produced and co-financed with Hollywood. The extraordinary creativity of this genius has broken new ground in both name and reality. The main character Sang-hyun is played by Son Kang-ho, one of Korea's most talented actors. Kim Ok-bin, who plays the role of Tae-joo, shows a physical performance that includes a sensual scene in which she even makes bold use of her body. She showed a brilliance that foreshadowed the birth of a new star actress, and won the Best Actress Award at the Sitges Catalonia Film Festival. She is supported by Shin Ha-gyun and Kim Hye-sook, two of Korea's most talented actors. Winner of the Jury Prize at the 62nd Cannes International Film Festival. --Sang-hyun is a priest who has been turned into a vampire by an accident, and Tae-joo is a married woman who wants to escape from the repressed life with her husband. The two, who strongly desire each other, commit a series of immoral sins to the end of the desire that wells up from within their bodies. A priest with a thirst for blood and a married woman writhing in agony from unknown pleasures unfold in an insane feast! But a shocking fate awaits them as they fall in lust...

*Rated 15-and-over.
