Kim Ki-duk's "The Bow" Invited to Cannes Film Festival

A member of the production team of director Kim Ki-duk's new film "The Bow" has said, "'The Bow' has been invited to a non-competitive division of this year's Cannes International Film Festival. We will make an announcement sooner or later on what division the film will be invited to exactly". Though the film has not been invited to a competitive division, it will be the first time director Kim Ki-duk makes a presence at the Cannes International Film Festival.

"The Bow" has recently been given an "R-15" rating by the Korea Media Rating Board. The film to be released on May 12 will be shown at general theaters, not at multiplexes as other films have been in the past.

Even before its shooting was finished, its export to 15 foreign countries was already agreed upon, and therefore, its production costs had already been recovered.

The film "The Bow" is Kim Ki-duk's 12th work. The main backdrop of the film is an unmapped island and a boat floating near the island. Living together in this boat are a young girl just showing signs of budding breasts and a hale 60-year old man who is fit and healthy for his age. "The Bow" is a weapon that the old man uses to protect the girl from younger men on the island. The film portrays the love between the old man and the girl.
