Kim Ki-Duk: Bin-jip (2004)

Kim Ki-Duk‘s “Bin-Jip” (‘Empty House’ also titled ‘3 Iron’) is a quaint cinematic experience, a love story of sorts hovering between spirit-reality-fantasy. Nothing is articulated entirely, nor is there a need for it. Relationships are discovered in profound silence. Watch.

Bin-jip (3-Iron) (Hierro 3, Kim Ki-duk, 2004) (Subtítulos español)

(Update: The English subtitled version got pulled down by the Tube. This has Spanish subtitles. I will plug in the English version as soon as it is available again on the Tube.)

The abusive hubby is kind of stereotypical I would say. Not the best of actor playing hubby as well.
