Kim Ki Duk has achieved a prominent status as talented, sensitive and magisterial filmmaker due its proposed works, that really have specific weight and allude visibly to those arcane stories, hovered and permeated by a clear inspiration of the traditional Eastern legends.

An old fisherman picks up a girl since her early childhood, becoming his reason of daily inspiration and living. The time has come and now she is an alluring teenager; however he has decided toe establish the day of marriage for the next three weeks. Both of them in a boat, in the middle of the sea and he always leaves in the boat just to get the elemental supplies.

But the love will make its appearance when a young boy, accidentally comes. The old man is aware of her visible change and reject to him.

So, with that simple premise "The bow" will emerge with all its visual splendor without letting us to know what they are talking because the fisherman and the girl don't say a word and only communicate through signals, unhearing whispers and expressive sights.

One of the most beautiful films that I've ever seen and certainly one of the most pyramidal and poetic movies of this raising century. it's useless to affirm we are in presence of a landmark classic of the cinema.

Another masterpiece from Korean director Duk! If you haven't seen some of his previous works than I highly suggest that you do. Like his last couple of flicks there really isn't that much dialouge from his main charachters. He tells the story thorugh emotions and you feel the charachter's pain, joy, and loss. The story is of a man who wants to wed a younger female. He is a fortune teller and he knows that his time is almost up. The last half hour is gripping and the soundtrack is worth the price of admission. The film is in DTS and the transfer is beautiful! Very similar in ways to 3 IRON and SPRING SUMMER!
