Synopsis

In Seoul, a suicidal student meets a young woman who decides to join him in his fatal gesture. Tongsu, an unsuccessful filmmaker, spots a beautiful young woman, who happens to be the lead actress in the film he has just seen. Their stories will cross paths thanks to their love for cinema.

MUBI's take

The South Korean master of awkward encounters, Hong Sang-soo’s Tale of Cinema is among his most biting works. The cinephile dramedy features his signature complex romances, while following a meta-structure with a compelling mid-film gear-shift that delightfully points to cinema’s magical powers.
