In a town in Joseon-era Korea, a female undercover detective is investigating a counterfeiting plot and doesn’t realise that the lone swordsman she is repeatedly duelling is defending a conspiracy that leads right to the top. Complicating things further, the detective Namsoon (Ha Ji-won) and Sad Eyes (Kang Dong-won) begin to fall in love.
This South Korea movie features extensive use of slow motion, freeze frames, multiple images, and varying perspectives. It is shot in a similar way to Hero with strong uses of colours and beautifully choreographed sword fights.
Duelist will be heading to your local screen this coming March.
