A Distant Place
Drama119 min
On a remote sheep farm, a man’s quiet routine is thrown off balance by the arrival of two people from his closest circle: his lover and his twin sister. What had been an isolated life in the countryside becomes a tightly contained domestic drama, shaped by strained reunions, unspoken history, and the uneasy intimacy of living side by side. With Lee Sang-hee and Hong Kyung in the central trio, the film stays close to its characters as family ties and personal attachments press against the stillness of the farm.
