The President's Barber (2004)
Plot
A naive barber, whose intentions are good but whose grasp of politics is dangerously thin, finds himself entangled in the orbit of South Korea’s authoritarian ruler, Park Chung-Hee. His unwitting closeness to power sets off a slow-motion catastrophe for his unsuspecting family. Told through the eyes of his son, this biting political satire traces two decades of the nation’s turbulent history, blending dark humor with the personal fallout of a man who never saw the blade coming.
