End of Animal - Lõuna-Korea pilguheit viimsepäevale

End of Animal(Jimseunghui Ggeut) on noore režisööri Sung-hee Jo debüütfilm, mis jutustab Lõuna-Korea suhtes mõnevõrra üllatuslikult apokalüptilistest sündmusest, mille keskel liigub üks noor ja segaduses lapseootel alaealine naine. Kui vaadata tagasi Lõuna-Korea viimase aja filmidele, siis nende hulgas ei torka silma mitte ükski(aga samas ei julge oletada nagu neid polekski) maailma lõpu eri versioone käsitlevaid filme. Kui lugeda seda vähest leiduvat miniatuurset vastukaja, siis End of Animal on eelmisel aastal festivalidel tiirelnud madalaeelarveline ootamatu hoiakuga ulmeline draama, mis peaks põnevuseotsijaid igatipidi üllatama.Loodame, loodame.

Synopsis:
A strange man hops into a taxi already occupied by Sun-yeong, on her way to her mother’s home to give birth. The man speaks gibberish, pretends to know all about the driver and Sun-yeong, and then promptly begins a countdown. The taxi driver and Sun-yeong are confused, but the man in the baseball cap remains indifferent. When he counts down to zero the taxi suddenly comes to a stop and they fall unconscious. Sun-yeong, now alone and in a deserted field, heads towards the Taeryeong village, believing it to be the only place where she will be able to get in touch with her mother. But a glance around the strange village tells her that everything electrical has come to a standstill and people seem to disappearing one by one. Will Sun-yeong make it to the rest area to contact her mother? Why is there no power and where have the people gone? More important is the question of who the strange man in the baseball cap really is.
