“Ordinary Person” explores what happens when ordinary people are faced with decisions that have extraordinary consequences. The film, which received the NETPAC award at the 39th Moscow International Film Festival for best Asian feature, is set in Seoul in 1987. With its sympathetic characters and phenomenal acting (for his lead role, Son Hyun Joo nabbed the Star Award at the 2017 Korean Film Shining Star Awards and Best Actor at the Moscow International Film Festival), “Ordinary Person” is a film that will linger in your thoughts for days, challenging you to question your deepest moral convictions.
