One man’s desperation to secure a new job finds him exploring unique ways to eliminate his competitors, in Park Chan-wook’s (Decision to Leave) compelling and madcap thriller.

When paper expert Yoo Man-soo (Lee Byung-hun) is abruptly laid off, he loses the perfect life he’s worked hard for. So, when a new job comes along, he realises a perfect plan – by getting rid of his competition via any available means.

Director Park’s delightfully wicked film features his signature twists, dark humour and exquisite imagery – everything that has made him such a unique cinematic presence.
