Oldboy

15 years of imprisonment, five days of vengeance.

A man is mysteriously imprisoned for fifteen years in an anonymous cell, then released without explanation. Obsessed with discovering his captor's identity and motive, he embarks on a relentless quest for vengeance that spirals through Seoul's shadowy underworld. Park Chan-wook orchestrates a hypnotic psychological thriller where violence, revelation, and moral ambiguity collide. With each answer unearthed, the narrative deepens into something far more complex and devastating than simple retribution—a meditation on culpability, obsession, and the corrosive weight of the past.
