The 24th feature from Hong Sang-soo, THE WOMAN WHO RAN follows Gam-hee (Kim Min-hee), who has three separate encounters with friends while her husband is on a business trip. Young-soon (Young-wha Seo) is divorced, has given up meat and likes to garden in her backyard. Su-young (Song Seon-mi) has a crush on her architect neighbor and is being hounded by a young poet she met at the bar. Woo-jin (Sae-byuk Kim) works for a movie theater. Their meeting is polite, but strained. Before long, their shared history bubbles to the surface. With characteristic humor and grace, Hong takes a simple premise and spins a web of interconnecting philosophies and coincidences. THE WOMAN WHO RAN is a subtle, powerful look at dramas small and large faced by women everywhere. "Elegant, dryly funny and quietly moving." - Manohla Dargis, The New York Times (2020, 77 min., in Korean w/ English subtitles)
