When a local pimp is publicly humiliated by a snobbish college girl, he manipulates her into a life of sexual slavery at his brothel, where he gradually falls in love with her. A lurid fable of obsessive love, using a potent mix of dark romance, surrealist technique, and violent action from Kim Ki-Duk, the award-winning director of THE ISLE, 3-IRON, and SPRING, SUMMER, FALL, WINTER… AND SPRING.
