3-Iron

Elegant formal touches and enchanting narrative departures make 3-Iron one of the most surprising love stories in recent memory. From Kim Ki-duk, the Korean director of The Isle and Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter...and Spring, 3-Iron follows a wistful young man who benevolently haunts empty houses, tending them while their owners are away. When he encounters a former model imprisoned by her abusive husband, the two quickly bond and their wordless relationship deepens as they continue to occupy houses, searching for peace and contentment.
