In Another Country

This film is basically the definition of "artsy". Probably unwatchable to some, but unusual (in a good way) in concept and execution. The parallels between the stories of the various Annes make the thing seem more like a cohesive story as a whole and less like a mishmash of oddly-paced scenes, which is how it seemed to me at first. The fact that this is a Korean film performed mostly in English by non-native English speakers adds sort of a subtextual narrative about communication, which is most interesting indeed.
