A short movie directed by two South Korean director brothers, Park Chan-wook and Chan-kyong, "Night Fishing (Paranmanjang)" won the Golden Bear Award for best short film at the 61st Berlin International Film Festival, organizers Announced today. The film was shot completely on an iPhone.
"The film we chose is nothing but a small miracle. Throughout the multi-layered original story of a simple man who is forced to confront his life and death through his shape-shifting, we experienced transformation, judgment and deep forgiveness," wrote the jury of the festival's Shorts Section on its Web site.
The movie, starring Oh Kwang-rok and Lee Jung-hyun, is about a man who transcends his current and former lives after catching a woman while fishing in a river in the middle of the night.
