A selection of shots from Hong Sang-soo's "The Power of Kangwon Province"...

Possessing a peculiarly palette that few auteurs engage, Hong Sang-soo is a cerebral cine-cynic with an understated magical touch. His films tackle the awkwardness of human relationships as he wraps them in realities that are as relatable as they are uncanny. His films are an acquired taste that many may reject, but for those whose gaze can last his works can appear subtly surreal as well as grounded. The following are a selection of shots from his second feature "The Power of Kangwon Province", an entrancing film that stands still and runs deep. Enjoy! [spoilers]
