Spring,summer,autumn,winter and spring (2003)

Director:  Kim Ki-Duk
Writer:     Kim Ki-Duk
Language:Korean
The entire film takes place in an isolated lake where an old monk lives in a floating temple. The monk has a boy with him whose growth to a wise monk is shown in the film by different phases of year as the different phases in his life.

The film's visuals are great and the meditative nature of the film occasionally  interrupted by some violent scenes gets rightly transcended into the audiences' mood. Its certainly more than a good film but I thinks its generally overrated by many.

Rating: 3.5/5
