BAKJWI – THIRST – DURST

From Chan-wook Park

With Song Kang-ho, Kim Ok-bin, Kim Hae-sook, Shin Ha-kyun

Year 2009

Duration 133 min.

Priest Sang-hyun is plagued by a crisis of faith. He therefore takes part in a dangerous medical experiment in Africa. Instead of dying as he secretly hoped, he returns to his homeland as a vampire, where he meets the rebellious Tae-ju. His liaison with her drags him deeper and deeper into the maelstrom of all kinds of carnal desires. DURST meanders lustfully between amour fou, drama of conscience and surrealistic grotesque. Overflowing with visual ideas and oscillating between tragedy, horror and bizarre humour, Chan-wook Park stages his vampire variation as a cinematic bloodlust.
