Glass Garden(HKAFF 2017)

After earning a berth in the Cannes Film Festival’s Un Certain Regard competition with Madonna (12th HKAFF), director Shin Su-won returns with her fourth feature film Glass Garden. Jaeyeon is a medical researcher who retreats deep into the forest to live a solitary life in a glass garden. Intrigued by her brilliant but odd character, embattled writer Ji-hoon begins to study Jaeyeon, eventually using her as the inspiration for his new novel. But the growing rapport between the two is derailed when Jihoon discovers the shocking secret that exists within Jae-yeon’s mysterious glass garden. Appearing in only her second film role in the last decade, Moon Geun-young brings ethereal, captivating presence to Shin’s haunting mystery-drama.
