Synopsis: Based on a Haruki Murakami short story, Korean master Lee Chang-dong's remarkable new thriller BURNING was the most acclaimed film of Cannes, setting a record for the highest-ever score achieved in the 18-year history of Screen International's prestigious critics' poll. Novelistic in scope, grandeur and impact, and featuring three remarkable performances, it's a gripping psychological study of thwarted love, ambition and obsession.

While working as a courier in Seoul, aspiring young writer Jong-su (Yoo Ah-in) encounters the lively Hae-mi (Jun Jong-seo), a childhood friend from his hometown. After spending a day together, and convinced of a burgeoning romantic relationship, Jong-su agrees to look after Hae-mi's cat while she's away on a trip to Africa. On her return, she introduces Jong-su to an enigmatic young man named Ben (Steven Yeun, The Walking Dead, Okja), who she met during her trip. The three begin an awkward friendship, with Jong-su's feelings for Hae-mi growing ever stronger, even if it's apparent she has fallen under the spell of his rich and mysterious rival's charms. Suddenly, after Ben makes a strange confession, Jong-su is led to question his motivations and he sets off on an increasingly desperate search to uncover the truth, even if the line between reality and imagination begins to blur.
