2022 marks the hundred-year anniversary of Alfred Hitchcock’s first feature. A century on, Hitchcock remains one of the most influential filmmakers in the history of cinema. But how does his vast body of work and legacy hold up in today’s society? Mark Cousins tackles this question and looks at the auteur with a new and radical approach: through the use of his own voice. As Hitchcock rewatches his films, we are taken on an odyssey through his vast career – his vivid silent films, the legendary films of the 1950s and 60s and his later works – in playful and revealing ways.  screenplay Mark Cousins cinematography Mark Cousins editing Mark Cousins music Donna McKevitt sound Ania Przygoda narrator Alistair McGowan producer John Archer production Hopscotch Films world sales Dogwoof cleo@dogwoof.com yung@dogwoof.com www.dogwoof.com Mark Cousins is an Irish-Scottish director and writer.

A man falls to his death from a mountain peak. The detective in charge, Hae-joon, comes to meet the dead man’s wife Seo-rae. “I worry when he does not come back from a mountain, thinking he might die at last,” she tells him. Seo-rae does not show any signs of agitation at her husband’s death. With her behavior so unlike that of a grieving relative, the police can’t help but consider her a suspect. Hae-joon interrogates Seo-rae, and while observing her on a stakeout, feels himself slowly developing an interest in her. A suspect who is hiding her true feelings, and a detective who suspects and desires his suspect: their Decision to Leave. screenplay Chung Seo-kyung Park Chan-wook cinematography Kim Ji-yong editing Kim Sang-bum music Cho Young-wuk production design Ryu Seong-hie costumes Kwak Jung-ae cast Tang Wei (Seo-rae Song) Park Hae-il (Hae-joon Jang) producer Park Chan-wook production Moho Film world sales CJ ENM www.cjenm.com Park Chan-wook established his reputation as a leading Korean director in the year 2000, with his Joint Security Area, followed by Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance, the first part of his Vengeance Trilogy, in 2002.
