Searching For the Elephant (2009) by Jung Seung Goo, KOR, 144 min.
A film every bit as odd as its bizarre title may suggest. Whilst on the surface it may sound like a fairly straightforward, controversy baiting exploration of the sex lives and generally immoral behaviour of well to do Korean thirty-somethings, director Jung Seung Goo actually turns in something surprisingly subversive and unpredictable. Of course, though the film’s many graphic scenes of sex, drugs and other excesses are still to an extent its raison d’être, it also has a more tragic reason for being noteworthy, in that it features actress Jang Ja Yeon in her last role before she took her own life.
