BUSAN, South Korea, Sept. 18 (UPI) -- Park Chan-wook's No Other Choice, which opened the Busan International Film Festival on Wednesday, introduces viewers to You Man-su (Lee Byung-hun) and his family -- wife, two kids, two dogs -- as he barbecues in his backyard and reflects on a sense of fulfillment after 25 years of hard work at a paper company.
With the first falling blossoms of autumn sprinkling down on him, he pauses to marvel: "I've got it all."
Spoiler alert: Man-su does not, in fact, have it all.
Soon enough, the onetime "Pulp Man of the Year" is swept up in a wave of downsizing layoffs at Solar Paper, which has been acquired by an American firm.
