Hoezo in KINO

This quiet film centers on a senior woman who, while in the early stages of dementia and raising her grandson in a small apartment, takes an interest in writing poetry. Lee presents yet another compelling female lead, one who embodies strength in a remarkably poised and reserved way. Which in turn is also translated in the style of directing. As viewers, we can’t help but feel the director’s deep empathy for the protagonist, a woman enduring inner turmoil, yet never losing her composure and focus on writing that one poem.
