In Seoul, a suicidal student meets a young woman who decides to join him. Later, an unsuccessful filmmaker spots a beautiful young woman, who happens to be the lead actress in the film he has just seen…

« Chance and happenstance bisect in serendipitous ways in Tale of Cinema. Again highly reminiscent of the films of Gallic vet Eric Rohmer, this one has a sheer simplicity and clarity — plus an attractive underlying optimism — that could win the helmer new friends on the international arthouse circuit. » (Variety)

« No movie this year will benefit as much from repeat viewings as Tale of Cinema, which is so subtly split down the middle it makes Tropical Malady seem like an experiment in excess. The film reflects nothing less than the way movies filter and represent the human experience. » (Slant Magazine)
