Clytaemnestra (2021)

Directed by Ougie Pak

Drama

Overview

A Korean theater troupe travels to Greece to rehearse a new production of Aeschylus’ Agamemnon. The secluded setting offers a stunning backdrop to the tensions mounting between the lead actress, the domineering director, and various members of the company. BAMcinemaFest alum Ougie Pak (Sunrise/Sunset) lays bare the group dynamics of artmaking and patriarchal power structures, transposing the framework of classic Greek tragedy to a thoroughly modern context.

Viewing Notes

Slow burn drama that feels like a reality tv show in that this acting is very good. This abusive relationship between director and actors is probably more common than anyone outside the entertainment industry wants to believe.
