A Situation Expands in the Initial Trailer for Hong Sangsoo’s The Day She Returns

      A Berlinale premiere from Hong Sangsoo is always expected, but the initial details about his 34th film, The Day She Returns, are particularly thrilling. The title appears to directly hint at his perhaps most significant work, The Day He Arrives, with connections that may soon become clear. The premise is quintessentially Hong—those who have spent countless hours engaging with his films will be eager to envision the structural and performative intricacies that might unfold. Leading up to the premiere, there is a first trailer that stands out as superior to what is typically seen in this format.

      According to the official synopsis (which will be further elaborated on-screen): “She has just completed filming an independent movie and now needs to give three interviews about it. Later, during her acting class, her instructor asks her to reenact the interviews. For some reason, however, she cannot recall them.”
