ANNOUNCEMENTS

Before Parasite made cinematic history, there was Incoherence, a rare early short film from his student days at the Korean Academy of Film Arts. Don’t miss this exclusive one-night screening of a hidden gem from the Oscar-winning director’s archives.

Released in 1994, Incoherence is a 30-minute triptych that unravels the double lives of seemingly respectable men: a professor, a newspaper editor, and a prosecutor, each caught engaging in petty or shameful misconduct. From stealing newspapers to committing public indecency, these morally flawed figures later appear in a televised debate on societal decay, exposing the deep, ironic hypocrisy that Bong would become famous for dissecting in his later work. The film is a sharp and darkly humorous critique of power and public virtue, already showcasing the director’s unique voice and storytelling style.

Starring Yu Yeon-su, Yoon Il-joo, and Kim Roe-ha, the latter of whom would go on to appear in Bong’s Memories of Murder, the film also includes a brief cameo by Bong himself. It’s a must-watch for longtime fans and anyone curious about the raw beginnings of one of modern cinema’s most visionary filmmakers.

Meet this cinematic masterpiece on May 22nd at Cinéma du Musée. Don’t miss this rare chance to see Incoherence on the big screen!
