Director Lee Chang-dong's New Film 'Possible Love' Wins FIPRESCI Prize at the 83rd Venice International Film Festival

Industry sources reported on September 12 that director Lee Chang-dong's new film 'Possible Love' has been selected as the winner of the International Federation of Film Critics (FIPRESCI) Prize in the competition section of the 83rd Venice International Film Festival. The FIPRESCI jury highly praised the work for unraveling complex themes such as class, exploitation, love, and desire through a delicate narrative structure.

With this award, director Lee Chang-dong has once again earned the honor of the FIPRESCI Prize, following 'Oasis' in 2002. 'Possible Love', a feature film released eight years after 'Burning', stars Sul Kyung Gu, Jeon Do-yeon, Cho Yeo-jeong, and Zo In-sung, portraying the stories of different couples. As the film has secured the critics' prize ahead of the announcement of the festival's main awards, the film industry's attention is also focused on whether it will win the top prize, the Golden Lion.
