Kim Ki-duk's
The Isle is a film that is meant for very few. It is said to be the movie that gave Ki-duk his international acclaim. The movie centers around a mute girl who rents small cottages on a lake for fishermen. The movie is one top class work on visuals. But the problem why Isle is not meant for everyone is the hidden violence, sex and brutality. A painful atmosphere is very well built by Kim in this picture that runs around 90 minutes. The Isle is a movie that works on a territory of violence that was far unknown to me with a subject, a purpose and a painful emotion of jealous, all to be conveyed to it's desired audience.
