Reviews

"For his ambitious goals, his inventive recruitment of the powers of the cinema, for rediscovering the fantastic and true story of Choi Eun-hee (Madame Choi) and her fateful path through the North and South Korean history of the 20th century; for his conscientious weighing of the small and the large, the poetic and the political, the terrible and the familiar; For the seamless interweaving of special moments, comprehensive and repeated historical pathologies, simple facts and cinematic epiphanies, the International Jury awards the Grand Prize to 'Madame & Little Boy'.
