Beasts Clawing at Straws

A Louis Vuitton bag stuffed full of cash sends a group of hard-luck lowlifes on a desperate chase for the fortune in this pitch-black neo-noir crime thriller. Fish-mongering gangsters, a greasy cop, a crooked customs official, a sad-sack gym attendant, a beautiful prostitute, her wife beater of a husband, her ruthless boss and her clueless boyfriend all violently scheme to get their hands on the elusive bag. First time director Kim Yong-hoon’s witty thriller is a beautifully constructed puzzle that with each double-cross find the pieces fall into place. Starring Jung Woo-sung from "Asura: City of Madness" and Jeon Do-yeon, award winner in Cannes for her lead role in "Secret Sunshine".
