在首爾未能成名，詩人善浩（金英弼 飾）搬回鄉與父母同住。一次與父親吵 架後，善浩憤而帶走家牛，要將他賣 掉。可是賣牛不成，善浩只好長途跋涉 地將牛拖回家，途中重遇剛喪偶的前度 賢秀（孔曉振飾）。善浩一直無法原諒 賢秀移情別戀和他的好友結婚，事隔多 年的重聚，打開了他內心的暗格。根據 KimDo-yeon暢銷小說改編，林順禮這部 溫柔而異想天開的公路電影也是一段洗滌 心靈的療癒旅程。〈離家500里〉，Peter, Paul and Mary的音樂伴隨，電影帶領 觀眾一同與牛同行，放下執著，啟迪 佛系人生。

作為韓國最重要的女性商業電影導演之 一，林順禮是釜山國際電影節常客。她 的首部長片《逃勞三兄弟》（ 1996 ） 在釜山國際電影節新潮流競賽單元放 映，並獲亞洲影評人聯盟獎。其他著名 作品包括廣受好評的樂隊電影《威基基 樂團 》（ 2001 ）、體育傳記《擲球之 女》（2008）、話題之作《揭密風暴》 （2014），以及改編自日本美食漫畫的 《森之廚房》（2018）等。

映前映後 Before and After After failing to make it big in Seoul, aspiring poet Sun-ho (Kim Young-pil) moves back to his countryside home to live with his parents. After an argument with his father, Sun-ho angrily takes the family bull to sell it. After he’s unable to sell the bull, Sun-ho is forced to tow the bull home via the long way, with his ex-lover (Kong Hyo-jin) – and the widow of his estranged best friend – along for the ride. Based on the novel by Kim Do-yeon, Yim Soon-rye’s gentle and whimsical road movie is also a heartfelt story of a man on a pilgrimage in search of freedom from his past failures. As mellow as “500 Miles”, the Peter, Paul and Mary tune featured in the film, Rolling Home With a Bull will inspire your own journey of tidying up personal burdens and search for things that spark joy.

One of Korea’s leading commercial female filmmakers, director Yim Soon-rye has been a frequent visitor to BIFF. Her debut feature film, Three Friends (1996) won the NETPAC Award after screening at BIFF’s New Currents competition. Her other films include critically acclaimed band drama Waikiki Brothers (2001), blockbuster sports saga Forever the Moment (2008), crusading journalist thriller Whistle Blower (2014) and the hit Korean adaptation of Japanese foodie manga Little Forest (2018).
