Review

`121231House of the Seasons is a unique film that weaves the intricate family stories of three generations into a mysterious and atmospheric narrative. Seong-jin heads to his family home for a jesa, memorial ceremony. Seong-jin’s family runs a tofu factory, and although the family strictly adheres to traditional values, it radiates a vibrant energy. Together, they eat, share laughter, and experience partings. Amid these partings lies death that creates fractures within the family. The film’s succinct structure and clear frames capture the vigor of life, as well as joys, sorrows, passion, and deep-rooted melancholy. Tensions unravel as various events unfold against the vivid backdrop of the changing seasons, and the traces of individual expressions and scenic landscapes from this captivating film linger on.
