Amor

About This Movie

So, 'Amor' is this quietly haunting piece that unfolds in a zoo, reflecting on grief and fleeting moments. Tae-Woo, played by Jung Kyoung-Ho, really brings an emotional weight to the role of a zookeeper stuck in this surreal limbo while his girlfriend, Hee-Yeon, is fighting for her life in a hospital. You can feel the tension between the mundane and the extraordinary, especially with the fantasy elements that bubble up unexpectedly. The pacing is gentle, allowing the viewer to soak in Tae-Woo’s despair and his strange encounter with a mysterious woman. The performances feel grounded even amidst this fantastical backdrop, and there’s an ethereal quality to the visuals that sticks with you. It's a film that lingers in the mind, not just for its narrative but how it handles loss and love.
