Memories of Murder

Dir. Bong Joon-ho
132 min

Parasite director Bong Joon-ho's police procedural is the centrepiece of our retrospective and arguably his masterpiece. Certainly, among serial killer movies this one is on a par with Zodiac and The Silence of the Lambs, but more politically astute.

Flow

Dir. Gints Zilbalodis
84 min

The Host

Dir. Bong Joon-Ho
119 min

Bong's monster movie (inspired by a real-life pollution scandal and carrying a prophetic viral load of its own) is his most purely fun entertainment. It's the most successful Korean movie ever made.

Every Little Thing

Dir. Sally Aitken
93 min

If you thought Flow was an emotional rollercoaster, wait til you meet Cactus and Wasabi, baby hummingbirds fighting for their lives under the loving care of hummingbird-whisperer Terry Masear, an Angelino who makes it her mission to nurse injured birds.
