overview
What is Self-portrait 2000 about?
A man addicted to gambling loses his job and leaves his family. He lives at a 24-hour open sauna away from debt collectors, while borrowing money left and right to keep his habit going. When he finally gets the upper hand at a poker game, a police raid spoils his good fortune. He sees a driver sleeping in a truck with his wallet hanging out of his pocket. Struggling to keep his 'moral integrity', the man kills himself rather than commit the robbery. It blends drama elements. The film reflects a distinct South Korea style and perspective. The story is brought to life by director Lee Sang-yeol.
