The film 'Project Y' has been invited to the 50th Toronto International Film Festival Special Presentation section, which will be held from Sept. 4 to Sept. 14. 'Project Y' is a story that takes place when Mi-seon and Do-kyung, who had only each other's possessions, steal hidden black money and gold bars to escape from the bottom reality.
The Toronto International Film Festival, where Project Y was invited, is the largest film festival in North America and one of the world's four major film festivals, where films of both popularity and artistry are invited. Among them, the special presentation section where 'Project Y' was invited introduces new works by world-class actors and directors, and previously, director Bong Joon-ho's 'Mother', 'Parasite', director Park Chan-wook's 'Decision to Break Up', 'Lady', and director Kim Ji-woon's 'Secret' were invited. At the 49th Toronto International Film Festival held last year, director Lee Eon-hee's 「The Love Act of the Large City" and director Ryu Seung-wan's"Veteran2" were invited to the special presentation section, and director Woo Min-ho's"Harbin" was invited to the gala presentation section, drawing enthusiastic responses.
Giovanna Fulvi, the chief programmer of the Toronto International Film Festival, wrote about 'Project Y'"Han So-hee and Jeon Jong-seo, the strong attraction created by the two actors, adrenaline-stimulating action, and the fierce struggle for survival provide thrilling tension and deep emotional resonance at the same time. Project Y, which revolves around bold plans, is one of the most anticipated Korean films of the year, he said, explaining the reason for the invitation.
As such, 'Project Y' is attracting expectations with the intense chemistry and new transformation of actors Han So-hee and Jeon Jong-seo, who captivated the audience with their unique acting and unique charm in each work. Director Lee Hwan of 'Adults Don't Know' and 'Park Hwa-young', who drew attention for their unconventional material and intense directing, participated as the director and drew attention. The production was accompanied by Climax Studios, which successfully led 'Hell', 'D.P.', and 'Concrete Utopia', which showed the potential of Korean content to the world, and WOWPOINT, a global production company that was officially invited to the special presentation section of the 50th Toronto International Film Festival with both works 'Face' and 'Project Y'.
The film 'Project Y', which will give you intense energy with the brilliant chemistry between Han So-hee and Jeon Jong-seo, a close narrative and speedy development, will be released in Korea after its debut at the Toronto International Film Festival.
