Asako in Ruby Shoes
December 9, 2000•1h 57m•★ 7.1
DramaRomance
“Love graphics dreamed of two cities.”
Asako in Ruby Shoes succeeds in providing yet another challenge to views of a homogeneous South Korea by presenting to us the Asian side of modern globalization. The film jumps back and forth from Korea and Japan, with each main character feeling out of place in their respective homes.
