Decision to Leave
The closer you look, the harder you fall.
Directed by Park Chan-wook
A stylish, morally ambiguous thriller that weaves murder investigation with forbidden attraction, where the detective's pursuit of truth becomes entangled with desire.
From a mountain peak in South Korea, a man plummets to his death. Did he jump, or was he pushed? When detective Hae-joon arrives on the scene, he begins to suspect the dead man’s wife Seo-rae. But as he digs deeper into the investigation, he finds himself trapped in a web of deception and desire.
