South Korean filmmaker Lee Chang-dong is drawing attention ahead of his seventh feature film, Possible Love.

Lee has said the film examines the ethics of the camera, raising questions about how media captures and represents such tragedy.

Why now: Interest is surging around the acclaimed director's first new film in years and its heavy real-world subject matter.
