An intriguing new voice in independent cinema, Korean American filmmaker Ougie Pak combines a strong, atmospheric feeling for place with a nuanced understanding of the subtle shifts in human relationships. Whether training his camera on a woozy New York City as seen through the eyes of a lovelorn tourist in SUNRISE/SUNSET, the disturbing power dynamics coursing through a Korean theater troupe rehearsing a production on the coast of Greece in CLYTAEMNESTRA, or the fraught personal and professional relationships at play in a Taiwanese American hostess club in RED CARD, he employs careful framing and quiet moments of telling detail to imbue his works with a unique sensitivity and psychological depth.
