#37. Untitled Hong Sang-soo Project

Director/Writer: Hong Sang-soo
Producers: TBD
Distributor: Rights Available

The Gist: Taking place near the backdrop of the beach/coastal town, what we do know is that Huppert is joined by Hong Sang-soo regular Yu Jun-Sang and I like how we put it: “one can presume that the thematic material in this one won’t deviate too much from his usual concerns, i.e. love triangles (squares, pentagons, and so forth), filmmaking and creative processes, and kimchi eating.”…(more)

Cast: Isabelle Huppert and Yu Jun-Sang

List Worthy Reasons…: 2012 will be known as the year that Isabelle Huppert experimented with Asian auteur filmmakers and we’re more curious about a potential relationship drama with Hong Sang-soo than the hostage Berlin preemed Captured by Brillante Mendoza.

Release Date/Status?: Filming towards the end of 2011, if there is a filmmaker who can meet a Cannes deadline in a short amount of time it is Sang-soo. Naturally with Huppert involved, we expect a Croisette showing in either the Main Comp or Un Certain Regard competition.
