[Article] Finecut Company Picks Up Kim Ki-duk’s ‘Human’
South Korean sales company Finecut has picked up the latest film by Kim Ki-duk, “Human, Space, Time and Human.”

It stars veteran Korean actors Ahn Sung-ki (“Revivre”), Ryoo Seung-bum (“The Net”), Lee Sung-jae (“Public Enemy”) and Jang Keun Suk (“You’re My Pet”), Japan’s Mina Fujii (“Death Note: Light up the New World”) and Joe Odagiri (“I Wish”) in a tale that tests and reveals the true nature of the human race.

“Time and Human” sees the story of a group of people who wake up in the morning to find themselves stuck in a battleship no longer floating in water.

“I made this film in order to stop hating humans,” the arthouse maverick said in a statement released by Cineclick.

Currently in post-production, “Time and Human” is the twenty third production by the director whose previous works including “The Isla” and “Three Iron” have been recognized by major European film festivals. But Kim remains controversial in his home country and the film’s Korean release date has yet to be set.

[Preview movie] Human, Space, Time and Human

Korea 2018

Korean, Japanese

122 min · Colour

World premiere

Cast: 
Jang Keun-suk (Adam)

Mina Fujii (Eve)
Ahn Sung-ki (The old man)
Lee Sung-jae (Adam's father)
Ryoo Seung-bum (gangster boss)
Sung Ki-youn (Captain)
Joe Odagiri (Eve's boyfriend)

A group of very different people set sail on an old warship. The passengers include a senator with his son, a newly-wed couple, a mysterious old man, a group of sex workers and a gang of violent criminals. Korean director Kim Ki-duk doesn’t waste any time before mercilessly letting his characters loose on each other in this confined setting. At first the aggressive behaviour of the thugs and their leader is directed at the first class passengers, but then more and more indiscriminately against the rest of those on board. Rape is followed by murder and it’s not long before the first of numerous and increasingly brutal mutinies takes place. And then, when a view of the ocean reveals a sea of clouds instead of water, it looks as though the ship’s social microcosm has finally come apart. All the protagonists in this film remain nameless and without a biography, the only thing that counts is the breathless here and now, which becomes a parable about the beast that is humankind. In a dramatic interpersonal downward spiral, the cruel fight for food and survival ultimately veers into the fantastical.

[News] Berlin: Kim Ki-duk’s ‘Human’ Scores Early Sales
“Human, Space, Time and Human,” the new film by controversial South Korean director Kim Ki-duk, has been picked up by a handful of distributors ahead of its premiere as a Berlinale Special screening.

Kim has recently attracted attention from the #MeToo movement, having been accused of sexual assault when shooting his 2013 film “Moebius.” A court last month cleared Kim of the sexual assault charges, but ordered him to pay a fine. The Berlin Film Festival said this week that it is aware of the controversy and condemns all violence.

The new film, which revolves around a small group of people from all walks of life who embark on a journey to the open sea, was acquired by King Records for Japan, Fidalgo Film for Norway and Danaos Film for Greece and Cyprus. Rights are handled by Finecut, a Seoul-based indie sales company.

Finecut also scored a pre-sale on Hong Sang-soo’s “Grass,” which plays in Berlin’s Forum section, to Les Acacias for France. The film stars Kim Minhee, who won the Silver Bear for best actress in Berlin last year with Hong’s “On the Beach at Night Alone.”

#HumanSpaceTimeAndHuman to be shown at Imagine Film Festival in Amsterdam on April 13 & 20.
This will be the 4th European Film Festival where Human, Space, Time and Human will be screened following Berlin, Vilnius and Brussels International Film Festival!!

Human, Space, Time and Human


A group of people is travelling on an old-fashioned steel ship. Amongst them a senator, some prostitutes, a newly-wed couple and a group of gangsters. It’s not long before tensions flare up, and when the ship turns out to be hovering in the clouds on the second day and the food starts running out, the situation becomes unsustainable. Korean master Kim Ki-duk blends a pitch-black world view with lyrical beauty.

fddb24a162219e30912cc6382344cb5e.jpg



Anyone familiar with the work of Korean director Kim Ki-duk knows that his view of the world is not exactly joyful. His newest film is a parable that shows how quickly the thin layer of civilisation cracks as soon as some pressure is applied. Nothing new there, but what’s extraordinary about this film is that Kim combines the raw violence he is known for with a lyrical beauty. In the last part, the ship becomes a fantasy world that is a far cry from the vessel with which the film began. But Kim wouldn’t be Kim if he didn’t have worthy finale up his sleeve as well.

[Guest Film Review] "Human, Space, Time and Human"

(Ext)
The rather surrealistic and full of allegories script takes place in a warship, which is taking a cruise with a number of quite different characters. The most central are a corrupt Politician and his supposedly idealistic son named Adam, a Gang boss and the rest of his group, a freshly-wedded couple comprising of Eve and her activist/idealist husband, the righteous Captain and his crew, and a strange old hermit. 
Trouble brews almost immediately since the politician receives special treatment both regarding his meals and by occupying the sole suite in the boat, to the disgruntlement of the rest of the passengers, who eventually express their annoyance, with the Gangster and his group taking the role of the bodyguard of the privileged, almost without consent, and despite Adam's protests. During the night, and after consumption of large quantities of alcohol, sex begins to dominate the setting, with a number of prostitutes "hanging out" with the crew and the gangsters. However, things soon take a turn for their worse when Eve and another woman in the boat get raped repeatedly, while Eve's husband ends up dead, with the gangsters and the politician and his son having a central role in all that is happening...

photo998159.jpg

 

Regarding the acting, I could easily say that Kim has done a great job in the casting, and has managed to draw as much as possible from his actors. Lee Sung-jae is exceptional as the Politician, in the archetypical role of the noble villain. Jang Keun-suk is quite good as Adam, a man who struggles to retain his idealistic notions but finds himself adrift on the will of stronger men and events that surpass him. Ryoo Seung-bum is excellent as the Gang Leader, in the role of the "lackey".

Mina Fujii as Eve is equally good, depicting a number of transformations her character experiences, that range from the absolute victim to the femme fatale, to the mother, to the victim again. Joe Odagiri as her boyfriend manages to steal a part of the show in the brief time he appears on screen.

Kim Ki-duk's own editing gives the film a relatively fast pace, with a number of jump cuts which, occasionally, make it a bit difficult to realize that time has passed on the boat, although this sense carries on very briefly. However, I felt that the film could have benefitted from some tighter editing, since the 2-hours on the same claustrophobic setting become a bit bothersome after a while, although the torrent of events compensate largely for this "fault".

 

"Human, Space, Time and Human" is the best film Kim Ki-duk has shot during the latest years (since "Pieta" and "Moebius") and I feel really glad to see the Korean auteur back on form. The restrictions I mentioned in the fourth paragraph, though, do apply, although those who can get past them, will discover a film of real value, as is the case of the majority of Kim Ki-duk's films.
