Synopsis
"The Continuing Land" depicts the time of the people entangled by the vague relationship in a strange land. Ho-rim, who is studying in London, watches a video of a strange woman on a camcorder she accidentally picked up. A few days later, she meets her ex-boyfriend Dong-hwan, his current girlfriend Kyeong-seo, and I-won, Kyeong-seo's friend and the woman who appears on the video in the camcorder she picked up. "The Continuing Land" unravels a fateful story caused by many coincidences. The film captures figures and space like a landscape or a photo album, unfolding in panoramic long takes and a long shots, patiently waiting until the characters gently confide in their stories. In the end, the characters who have formed a whole with the unfamiliar places leave traces more than stories on the screen. The film is more clearly imprinted in our hearts because it is unfamiliar and overflowing with emotions that go beyond the story of each scene. SONG Kyung-won
