At the centre of Hong Sangsoo's twenty-fifth feature as director and his first as cinematographer, sit a series of intergenerational interactions, as Youngho, a young man on the brink of adulthood, questions the direction his life is taking.

The first of two films by Hong to premiere in 2021, Introduction, with its stark monochrome images, is a compact but dense collection of at turns awkward and profound conversations, as Youngho searches for his place and purpose in the world.
