“Gorgeously shot (by Lee Hyung Duk) and well worth seeing for Jeon’s (Do-youn) deceptively simple performance.” Ty Burr, Boston Globe. A favorite at this year’s Cannes, Toronto, and Fantastic Fest film festivals, The Housemaid is a stylish, sexy thriller about an innocent

As a director (Gael García Bernal) and his crew shoot a controversial film about Christopher Columbus in Cochabamba, Bolivia, local people rise up against plans to privatize the water supply.
