YesAsia Editorial Description
Revolving around a troubled father and daughter relationship A Family is packed with emotional nuances that are brought to life with moments of intense passion lovers of fine cinema are sure to appreciate.
Soo Aeh portrays the movie's protagonist Jeong-eun a rebellious single-parent girl that is good at getting into big trouble. Previously arrested for robbery, she returns home after completing a two year prison term unsure of what will await her. Jeong's relationship with her father Ju-seok (Ju Hyun) a retired policeman has never been on good terms and as before the two are unable to lead a meaningful conversation. When Jeong's sincere intentions to build up her life anew by running a beauty parlor are only met with her father's cold disbelief and rejection, the desperate girl tries to find other sources of support, which leads to unexpected consequences
Lee Jeong-chul's ambitious directorial debut is loosely based on several of his experiences in real life. His talent to point out the fine details of inter action between two persons that are unable to put their feelings across was awarded with the Best New Director trophy at the 25th Blue Dragon Awards. Soo Ae whose earlier appearances include the popular TV series hit Love Letter offers an outstanding performance in her premier silver screen role for which she was honored with the Best New Actress award. Last but not least Korean veteran actor Joo Hyun who is known for movies like When You Are Alone and Friend gives a convincing portrayal as father that stubbornly adheres to the society's strict traditional principles.

Product Information
2002년 최대의 이슈를 낳으며 한국 영화의 트랜드가 되었던 <집으로…>에 이어 <가족>이 들려주는 진솔하고 솔직한 이야기는 <파이란>과 <집으로…>를 만든 튜브픽쳐스의 제작 및 마케팅 노하우로 2004년 가을, 다시 한번 관객들의 심금을 울렸다.
이 시대의 진정한 위안, 가족을 이야기하다
“잘 지냈어요? 나 이제 손 뗄 거예요”
나에겐 식구가 둘 있다. 아빠, 그리고 10살 박이 남동생 정환이…엄마는 정환이가 네 살 때 돌아가셨다.난 처음부터 아빠의 딸이길, 이 집에 태어나길 원치 않았다. 교도소에서 지내는 동안, 자유로움은 없었지만 집에서 해방될 수 있어 좋았다. 하지만, 날 기다리고 있을 정환이를 생각하면 맘이 설레인다. 집에 가긴 가야 하는데, 가장 맘에 걸리는 건 바로 아.버.지.다.
“왜 왔어? 언제 나갈 거야?”
3년 만에 정은이가 돌아왔다. 인사는커녕, 차마 웃어주지도 못했다. 내가 고작 한 말이라곤 ‘왜 왔냐’는 것뿐이었다. 그래도 집에 안 올까 봐 걱정했는데, 건강한 모습으로 돌아와 안심이 된다. 그런데 며칠 뒤 창원이란 녀석이 찾아와 정은이가 빌려 간 돈을 갚으라며 내게 협박을 했다. 새 출발한다는 정은이의 말을 믿었건만…

A touching film about the love of a father whose daughter thought he caused her mother's death until she found out the truth behind her father's eye accident. Not a bad movie. |

Powerful family story
|
"A Family" is a moving portrait of a deeply troubled family. Daughter Jeong-eun is released from a three year prison term to find that she is unwelcome in her family. Father Ju-seok has been crushed by life's circumstances; he has suffered the loss of his wife, the loss of an eye, the loss of his career with the police, and now is facing the loss of his life due to leukemia. The last thing he wants is his wayward daughter returning to the family and influencing his sweet young son. But what he wants and what he needs are two very different things. Great performances, crisp direction, an absorbing and emotionally satisfying story make this film well worth watching. Very highly recommended. |
