Into the Wild
One of these things is not like the others: family oriented animated feature My Beautifuil Girl, Mari, family oriented feature Cobby the Fox, explicitly sexual and supernaturally charged live action feature The Texture of Skin. As strange as it may seem all three were - or currently are being, in the case of Cobby - helmed by Korean director Lee Sung-Gang who, with Texture, has proven himself every bit as capable of creating challenging material for adults as he is rewarding work for children. Though the film has been stalled out as far as a mainstream theatrical release in Korea - likely thanks to the sexual content - I had the chance to see Texture when it played at the Philadelphia International Film Festival last year and it’s a quality piece of work. The film is finally getting a theatrical release in Korea and a trailer has hit online. Very nice.
