Too foreign

In Another Country (2012)

Directed by Hong Sang-Soo this film stars Isabelle Huppert, Yoo Jun-sang and Kwon Hae-hyo. To kill time a film student writes a screen play about the visits of three French women called Anne to a coastal town in Korea.

I found this film to be slow moving, a little repetitive and a bit impenetrable. Some of the dialogue seemed suspect to me and it did not help to have it played through three times as all the protagonists go through similar discussions. There is something interesting about seeing Isabelle Huppert play three different roles in one film but this film never worked for me.
