Possible Love, Lee Chang-dong’s first feature since 2018’s Burning, arrived on Netflix on November 6. The drama follows two couples from different circumstances whose lives intersect when a documentary filmmaker sets out to film laid-off workers.

Jeon Do-yeon and Sul Kyung-gu play Mi-ok and Ho-seok, while Cho Yeo-jeong and Zo In-sung play Ye-ji and Sang-woo. Their encounter draws the families together and brings hidden desires and tensions to the surface.

South Korea selected the film as its submission for the international feature Oscar. A country’s submission is not a final Academy nomination.
