The movie starts with the suicide of a young woman. Why she decided to jump off the roof of a karaoke bar is never really explained, but by the end of this haunting thriller from director Sang-soo Im, you’ll have a complete understanding of why she did what she did without ever having been told. The film tells the story of a young woman named Eun-yi (the delicious Do- yeon Heon) who gets hired by a rich family to be their housemaid. With the wife of the clan very pregnant with twins, it isn’t long before the husband starts taking liberties with the hired help, liberties that leave her pregnant and unsure of her future. What the rich family do to the girl is horrible; what she does to get her revenge is almost as haunting.
