A return to Hong Sang-soo’s frequent use of unorthodox narrative structures, Walk Up stars Hong regular Kwon Hae-hyo as Byung-soo, a successful filmmaker who takes his daughter to meet an old friend, Mrs. Kim (Lee Hye-young), in a small apartment building she owns. When Mrs. Kim invites him to move into the vacant top-floor apartment, the film swerves into gently surrealist territory, as each floor of the building comes to embody a different period in Byung-soo’s life—or perhaps a series of alternate realities altogether. “A film of gently discombobulating pleasures,” writes the Los Angeles Times’s Justin Chang, “constructed with a care and intricacy that never hinders the life, spontaneity and sense of possibility bursting out of every frame.” It will leave you feeling like you’ve spent the afternoon polishing off a few bottles of wine with a group of good friends. (Dir.: Hong Sang-soo, Korea, 2022, DCP, 97 min., Korean with English subtitles)
