Actress Jo Min-soo and actor Lee Jung-jin are starring in the movie "Pieta" with director Kim Ki-duk.

According to distributor NEW, Kim's eighteenth movie "Pieta" confirmed Lee Jung-jin and Jo Min-soo as leading roles and will start the making on the 15th.

"Pieta" is about the things that happen when a man (Lee Jung-jin) who makes a living by carrying out the favors of moneylenders without his own flesh and blood, meets his "Mother" (Jo Min-soo) out of the blue.

Kim Ki-duk said he started this movie with the questions, "I feel I have cruel genes as I get older. I don't want to understand them or have them close by. Is evil a taste of life like the tongue tastes? Is evil a god that tests us?"
