Clyde Coffee and The Roxy Theater are thrilled to present Cinema Abroad, a series of classic and contemporary foreign films.
With help from an orphaned pickpocket (Kim Tae Ri), a Korean con man (Ha Jung Woo) devises an elaborate plot to seduce and bilk a Japanese woman (Kim Min He) out of her inheritance. Based on the Victorian romance Fingersmith by Sarah Waters, The Handmaiden is one of the most acclaimed films of the last 10 years, cementing the reputation of Park Chan Wook (Oldboy, Thirst, Lady Vengeance) as one of the preeminent directors of our time.
