Hope: Na Hong-jin's Bold Leap from Rural Investigation to Cosmos-Spanning Sci-Fi at Cannes

To the point

Na Hong-jin's Hope is a bold sci-fi epic that leaps from a rural investigation to cosmos-spanning action, features Hwang Jung-min, Zo In-sung, Jung Ho-yeon, Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander, weaves action with themes of xenophobia and the difficulty of understanding others, has a sequel written and a U.S. release planned by Neon, and left Cannes audiences divided yet astonished by its audacious propulsion and visual spectacle.
