Acacia RC3
Park Gi-hyeong, director of Acacia, the closing film of the 8th Pusan International Film Festival, said he is not stuck on making horror films and the genre is just one of the instruments for conveying his message to audiences.
I express gratitude to PIFF, which is the stronghold of Asian as well as Korean cinema, for choosing my film as its closing movie, Park told reporters following the media preview for Acacia.
The 36-year-old director, who became famous for his 1998 debut feature Whispering Corridors, said he hadn’t intended to include a strong social message in his latest film, but it naturally came as he focused on the original plot.
Acacia is not a typical horror film haunted by dreadful monsters, but rather a psychological drama where an intangible evil omen slowly creeps into each scene.
A ghastly adopted child hiding his wickedness, a mysterious girl next door and an old man watching his family with vague crossed eyes are the elements revolving around the odd-shaped acacia tree which foments a crawling uneasiness.
Born in 1967, Park began his film career in 1992 as an assistant director. With his 1996 short Great Pretenders, Park won the best director’s award at Golden Crown Awards here and another top award at the Los Angeles International Short Film Festival. He was also invited to major festivals such as the Clermont-Ferrand. Park received both critical acclaim and commercial success with Whispering Corridor. Acacia is his third feature film, following Secret Tears in 2000.

Dem Koreaner Park Ki-Hyung ist mit seinem bereits 2003 fertig gestellten (aber erst jetzt international durchsickernden) ACACIA ein intelligentes und atmosphärisch umklammerndes Pendant zum Genretopoi „dämonische Göre“ gelungen. Nur anfänglich besteht der Eindruck, es ginge ihm nur um eine packende Inszenierung mithin der Parameter dieses Subgenres, dann beginnt er die Schablone geschickt aufzubrechen. Aber auch in der nun schnell wahrscheinlicheren Deutung, die ein Elternpaar als unfähig im Umgang mit dem von ihnen adoptierten, sehr sensiblen und hyperintelligenten Kind beschreibt, büßt ACACIA nicht seine übernatürlichen und schaurigen Qualitäten ein. Ein eiskalter Hauch verweilt, und frisst sich zunehmend tief ins Knochenmark, als das Kind nach einer Konfrontation mit seiner Adoptivmutter aus dem Haus rennt und spurlos verschwunden bleibt. Während nun der psychische Verfall der verzweifelten und von Schuldgefühlen gemarterten Frau immer drastischere Ausmaße annimmt, beginnt auf wundersame Weise ein altes, längst totes Akaziengehölz im Garten wieder dicht an Blättern und Blüten zu tragen, und auch darüber hinaus ein neues, sehr eigenwilliges Leben zu entwickeln. Aber damit, fürchte ich, habe ich jedem, der nur mal in eine Sammlung mit Volkssagen gelesen hat, schon viel zu viel verraten.
