Synopsis
After the film was screened, five people gathers. Director JUNG says a film is heart, KANG Soo-yeon emphasizes the message more than heart, Tony critically comments on Korean film trend, TOMIYAMA can’t deliver her thoughts due to poor English and the chief of the juries AHN Sung-ki is at a loss among them. These five jurors’ odd conflict goes to extremes and, at last, they burst their emotions out which is unexampled in the history of film festivals. Can these five jurors choose one film in the end?

Program Note
Jury deals with a commotion among judges during their meeting for the competitive section of a film festival and the touching conclusion that they subsequently reach. The audiences are reminded of the romantic yet practical raison d’être of a film festival that allows good people to gather and share their dreams. On the surface, this film appears to deliver a simple and straightforward idea. However, in order to appreciate its subtleties fully, one must have extensive prior knowledge about the Korean cinema, including independent films and film festivals. Furthermore, in terms of structure, there is a separate film within the film, and time exists in two parallels: in the cinema and the meeting room. Jury is to be enjoyed by seasoned filmmakers as well as experienced audiences. [HWANG Miyojo]
