ABOUT
“My path is always a new path”: Isabelle Huppert plays Iris, an inscrutable, seemingly dropped-from-the-sky French teacher to two Korean women in A TRAVELER’S NEEDS, “Hong Sangsoo’s funniest film in years” – The Film Stage. While Iris seems perfectly at ease as a stranger in Seoul — trying out her osmotic language technique (no textbooks), gamely questioning anyone she meets, and pursuing her craving for makgeolli (a milky rice wine) — she arouses curiosity and awkward confusion from her clients and the mother of her young male roommate. Is she a naif whose enigmatic allure illuminates the souls of those she encounters? Or is she a con artist?
