The Korean Cult Classic Phenomenon
HUNGER begins at the end.
When Dam discovers her boyfriend, Gu, murdered on the street by loan sharks - time stops. She cradles his corpse in her arms, carries it home and begins to tell their story in a string of monologues stretching between this realm and the next, binding two souls in a story of a love starved by life, until death do them part - or part by part ...
She eventually confesses she has slowly been eating the bathed, embalmed corpse of her lover, choosing to entomb Gu in herself - where he will now live on - forever.
At once romantic and horrific, HUNGER is a psychologically thrilling Korean classic that cuts to the very heart of love and the things we will do to keep it alive.
Due to release 26th June 2025.
