Flowers of Mold
South Korea Focus
A young woman falls for her neighbour after going through his rubbish
Jisu is a lonely young woman with an unusual hobby. At night she collects rubbish from her neighbour’s bins, using their contents to imagine the lives of their owners. When she encounters a particularly interesting collection of carefully discarded items, she tentatively befriends the owner.
With lines like “Discarded things give more honest portraits of people” this captivating story of human connection recalls the melancholy yearning of Wong Ka Wai’s Chunking Express. Former k-pop star, Kim Jae-kyung, balances quirky charm with deeper feelings of rejection and regret in a lusciously shot and intriguingly-plotted modern romance.
