A film school provides the appropriate landscape for Hong’s playful treatise on points of view in both cinema and love, which unspools across different short films designed to spotlight each major character’s perspective. An alternatively baffling, bumbling, or buffoonish young film director; an older and possibly wiser professor; and the young student who is loved, or loves, both: all have their tale to tell, with the pomp and circumstance of film school—disastrous screenings, worse conversation—captured with wince-inducing perfection. A “casually brilliant feat of storytelling, akin to an ingeniously wrought suite of literary short fiction” (Nicolas Rapold, New York Times).
