From the award-winning director of Parasite, Memories of Murder is a tightly wound and perfectly paced police procedural that fans of Fincher's Zodiac will adore.

Based on the true events of South Korea’s first serial murders, the film depicts two very different detectives’ obsessional hunt for a serial killer.

Praised for the subtlety of its cinematography, the depth of its characterisation, and the unique balance of its tone between the serious and the absurd, Memories of Murder is regarded as a masterpiece of Korean cinema. 

The film captures a pivotal moment in South Korean history - as it transforms from a military dictatorship into a modern, consumer society, fears shift from corrupt institutions to anonymous and unknowable neighbours, any of whom could prove to be an insatiable killer

Content warning: the film contains repeated references to, as well as short dramatisations of, violent sexual assault.
