Overview

A mentally-handicapped young man, a sex-obsessed tortured artist, and their responsible but somewhat prideful brother are all grief-stricken in the wake of their mother's death. The three brothers live with their father, a withdrawn and abusive parent who offers no consolation to his mournful sons. The dysfunctional family's dynamic is further complicated when the father strikes up an eccentric sexual affair with a Chinese man who is nearly the same age as his own sons.

Crazy Woman

Yoo Ae-Kyeong

Ania works at the neighborhood greengrocer run by her overbearing mother. Timid and exhausted by her everyday life, she finds an unlikely “ally” in her struggle for autonomy: a discarded cauliflower which, to her shock, starts talking to her. “The Cauliflower of Destiny” is a darkly comic coming-of-age story that explores complicated family dynamics with humor, tension, and a touch of surrealism. It reveals how thin the boundary can be between freedom and self-destruction — and how absurd, yet dangerously persuasive, the voices we choose to listen to can sometimes be.
