“Possible Love” Wins Silver Lion Grand Jury Prize At Venice Film Festival

Lee Chang Dong’s new film “Possible Love” took home the second-highest honor at this year’s Venice International Film Festival!

On September 12 local time, “Possible Love” won the prestigious Silver Lion Grand Jury Prize at the 83rd Venice International Film Festival, where the film received a six-minute standing ovation last week after its world premiere.

Lee Chang Dong previously won a Silver Lion for Best Director 24 years ago for his 2002 film “Oasis,” but “Possible Love” is his first film to win the Grand Jury Prize at the Venice Film Festival.

“Possible Love,” Lee Chang Dong’s first new film in eight years, tells the story of two married couples—a laid-off worker and his wife, along with a documentary filmmaker and her husband—whose lives become intertwined. As they meet to film a documentary, they are forced to confront their contrasting lives and hidden desires.

The film’s star-studded main cast includes Jeon Do Yeon, Zo In Sung, Cho Yeo Jeong, and Sul Kyung Gu.

After premiering in theaters on September 23, “Possible Love” will be released on Netflix on November 6.

Jeon Do Yeon, Sul Kyung Gu, Zo In Sung, And Cho Yeo Jeong’s “Possible Love” Unveils New Poster + Director To Receive Award

“Possible Love” director Lee Chang Dong will be receiving an award at the Mill Valley Film Festival!

On September 3, Netflix released a new poster for the upcoming film “Possible Love” alongside the announcement that director Lee Chang Dong will receive the Auteur Award at the 49th Mill Valley Film Festival. The film has also been invited to screen through the festival’s Spotlight program.

“Possible Love” tells the story of two married couples—a laid-off worker and his wife, along with a documentary filmmaker and her husband—whose lives become intertwined. As they meet to film a documentary, they are forced to confront their contrasting lives and hidden desires.

Organized by the California Film Institute, the Mill Valley Film Festival showcases new films by filmmakers who have established distinctive artistic visions through its Spotlight program. Meanwhile, the Auteur Award honors a filmmaker’s body of work and cinematic achievements.

The recognition at Mill Valley adds to Lee Chang Dong’s growing presence in the international film festival circuit. He was previously named the recipient of the Ebert Director Award at the 51st Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) Tribute Awards. “Possible Love” has also been invited to major film festivals around the world, including the Venice Film Festival’s Competition section and festivals in Toronto, New York, San Sebastián, Zurich, and Vancouver. The film has also been selected as South Korea’s entry in the International Feature Film category at the 99th Academy Awards.

The newly released poster for “Possible Love” shows Mi Ok (Jeon Do Yeon), Ho Seok (Sul Kyung Gu), Sang Woo (Zo In Sung), and Ye Ji (Cho Yeo Jeong) positioned at varying distances from one another on a beach at dawn. Ye Ji is seen looking at the other characters while holding a camera, building anticipation for what stories they will tell.

Watch: Jeon Do Yeon, Zo In Sung, Cho Yeo Jeong, And Sul Kyung Gu Become Dangerously Entangled In Trailer For “Possible Love”

Lee Chang Dong’s upcoming film “Possible Love” has unveiled its main trailer!

“Possible Love” tells the story of two married couples—a laid-off worker and his wife, along with a documentary filmmaker and her husband—whose lives become intertwined. As they meet to film a documentary, they are forced to confront their contrasting lives and hidden desires.

Notably, “Possible Love” marks award-winning director Lee Chang Dong’s first new film in eight years.

The newly released trailer opens on Mi Ok (Jeon Do Yeon) walking a wooded path alone, then cuts to her with her family in a car, where she breaks down into tears after her husband Ho Seok (Sul Kyung Gu) tells her it’s okay to cry.

Next, Mi Ok is seen filming an interview for Ye Ji (Cho Yeo Jeong)’s documentary, discussing a past strike. Ye Ji cautiously expresses interest in interviewing Mi Ok’s husband Ho Seok as well, but Mi Ok awkwardly replies that he won’t agree to it, hinting at the subtle emotional distance between them.

Later, Ye Ji tells her husband Sang Woo (Zo In Sung), “I’m trying to love those people. I’m a documentary filmmaker.” True to her words, the two couples come together for a friendly meal. However, that heartwarming atmosphere is short-lived: Sang Woo soon highlights the gap that exists between the couples by pointing out, “You’re different from those people.”

At Ye Ji’s suggestion, the four of them take off on a summer vacation that will change their lives irrevocably.
