You’re not going to want to miss this lurid, labyrinthine thriller, full of shifting alliances, shocking plot twists, and diabolical villains. In 1930s Korea, while the country is occupied by Japan, a con man posing as an aristocrat (Ha Jung-woo) hatches a plot to rob a Japanese heiress named Lady Hideko (Kim Min-hee). A female pickpocket (Kim Tae-ri) gets roped into the plan by acting as a maid in Hideko’s household, but can she trust either the con artist who’s using her or the heiress she might be falling in love with? Probably not, but you’ll just have to watch this movie yourself and see how its twisty plot keeps you guessing all the way to a stunning ending.
CAPE is the premier non-profit organization creating opportunities and driving change for Asian and Pacific Islander (API) success in Hollywood. We work to shift culture through storytelling to create a better world. For over 30 years, CAPE has fought for API representation in film and television, because what we watch on our screens should reflect the world in which we live and project a better one. CAPE advances representation for APIs in Hollywood through three main verticals: (1) nurturing and engaging creative talent and executive leadership; (2) providing cultural script consulting and talent referrals through the CAPE Database; and (3) championing projects for critical box office and streaming success.
