Adapted from a short story by Haruki Murakami, Lee Chang-Dong’s Burning follows the story of deliveryman Jongsu , who is out on a job when he runs into Haemi, a girl who once lived in his neighbourhood. Friendly and flirtatious, she asks if he can look after her cat while she’s away on a trip to Africa and he happily obliges.
On her return, she asks Jongsu to meet her at the airport and promptly introduces him to Ben, an enigmatic young man she met during her trip. As the group spend more time together, Jongsu slowly gets to know the inscrutable visitor – until one day, Ben tells him about his most unusual hobby.
This masterfully crafted movie teems with ambiguity, inevitability and sublime mystery. It won several awards including the Best Director Award in the 13th Asian Film Awards.
