South Korean director Hong Sang-soo's debut feature is structured as four separate narratives, presenting each lead character's viewpoint as he or she intersects with the others. A novelist (Kim Eui-sung) has an affair with two women, finding fulfillment in neither; a married businessman (Park Jin-seong) strays from his wife he can't satisfy; a naive young woman (Cho Eun-sook) surrenders her dignity for her lover; and a married woman (Lee Eung-kyung) tries to find solace in a frustrating affair.
