Sleep(Jam)
Dir: Jason Yu
South Korea, 2023, Korean, 95mins, DCP
Cast: Jung Yu-mi, Lee Sun-kyun
Newlyweds Hyun-su and Soo-jin share a happy marriage, but things go awry when Hyun-su develops a bad case of sleepwalking that goes from scratching to nearly jumping out the window. Soo-jin insists on finding a cure together with her husband, but her tenacity puts their marriage – and their sanity – on edge. Formerly an assistant director for Korean masters like Lee Chang-dong and Bong Joon-ho, first-time director Jason Yu deftly blends horror, dark comedy and a marital drama into a slick, unsettling, and wickedly fun thriller.
