July 32nd (2010)
Directed by Jin Seung Hyun, the curiously titled indie drama July 32nd is inspired by the short story "Full Moon" by acclaimed writer Ko Un. Screened at the 2008 Fukuoka Film Festival and the 2008 Shanghai Film Festival, the film depicts the tumultuous relationship of a killer and his daughter, whose lives are upturned on July 31, 1987. Pursued by the police, he leaves his five-year-old daughter in someone else's care, promising to pick her up the next day. But the next day never comes because he soon gets arrested. Years later, the abandoned daughter has grown up, and the waiting has turned into the longing for revenge.

Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
