WithIsabelle Huppert, Lee Hyeyoung, Kwon Haehyo, Cho Yunhee, Ha Seongguk

Year2024

Duration90min.

Nobody knows where the woman sitting on a bench in the park and diligently playing a children's recorder comes from. She says she comes from France. As she has neither money nor any other way of earning a living, she is advised to teach French. Two Korean women become her pupils. The woman loves to walk barefoot and lie on rocks. She endeavours to take events in her stride and live as matter-of-factly as possible. But life remains as hard as ever. To console herself, she drinks Makgeolli every day.

‘Hong's funniest film in years. A breath of fresh air.’ The Film Stage

‘First and foremost, The Needs of a Traveller is a film that watches Isabelle Huppert do things. And that's pretty great.’ Cinema Time
