No Other Choice (15)


  • Plymouth Arts Cinema Tavistock Place Plymouth, England, PL4 8AT United Kingdom (map)

Park Chan-wook returns with this satirical black comedy/thriller about a husband and father who takes violent action after being laid off.

Man-soo had it all: a loving wife, two talented children, and two happy dogs. But after 25 years of loyal service for a paper manufacturing company, he is suddenly made redundant. As his redundancy pay dwindles rapidly, he begins to take merciless measures to scoop a coveted position in a new company, leading to wild, and ever more absurd, acts of violence designed to dispatch the competition.

A chilling satire on workplace politics and ruthless status-seeking, No Other Choice is a continuously and deliciously surprising film that more than deserves its comparisons to Parasite. Winner of the Peoples' Choice Award at TIFF.
