Project Two

Guillermo GROIZARD

Spain2008 90min 35mm Color International Premiere

Synopsis

A man living a good life suddenly comes face-to-face with a shocking truth that shakes him to his very core: His father and mother are not his biological parents; his wife is having an affair. This critically acclaimed production with reviews like "An unprecedentedly superb action thriller in the history of Spanish filmmaking" is actually a science fiction/thriller. (Viewers discover this about half way into the movie.) Considering a cleverly intricate plot is never easy to invent and directors do pull their hair out to create authenticity that will hold the film together, Project Two is way more sophisticated than its Hollywood counterparts steeped in complacency and mannerism. The film also sets excellent example by doing away with the preconception so tenaciously prevalent in the Korean film industry that science fictions are synonymous with enormous production capital.
