One of those dark-side, erotic-odyssey deals, a sort of Last Tango in Seoul crossed with The Story of Y (the S&M lovers are identified solely by initials). The sexual content is very strong, if not all the way to "hard," but it's nowhere near as thrilling and broadening for the spectator as for the participants: more like boring and stupefying. The documentary video interpolations whereby we get to meet the first-time actors ("The idea of stripping naked makes me nervous") serve only to fan the flames of apathy. Based on a banned novel by Jang Jung II; with Lee Sang Hyun and Kim Tae Yeon; directed by Jang Sun Woo. (1999) — Duncan Shepherd
