The Delicacy Following Eric Rohmer 'Paris, Night Travelers' Releases in Korea on December 17

The story of characters waiting for a new morning after wandering through the dawn is depicted in 〈Paris, Night Travelers〉, a work that highlights the detailed directorial skills of director Mikael Hurst.

Starring Parisian icon Charlotte Gainsbourg, 〈Paris, Night Travelers〉 is a work infused with the unique sensibility of director Mikael Hurst. 〈Paris, Night Travelers〉 is a French drama that tells the story of 'Elisabeth', who dreams of a fresh start after her divorce, beginning a special cohabitation with a wandering girl 'Talula' she meets through a radio story.

Director Mikael Hurst has delicately portrayed the growth of characters facing change in their daily lives against the backdrop of Paris, a city he has cherished for a long time, drawing universal empathy. His early works, such as 〈Memory Lane〉, which was nominated for the Golden Leopard at the 63rd Locarno Film Festival, and 〈This Summer Feeling〉, which was officially invited to the 45th Rotterdam International Film Festival, have already made a mark at prestigious film festivals. Later, in 〈Petite Amanda〉, he depicted the story of a protagonist facing the sudden death of her sister and living with her orphaned nephew, earning an invitation to the competition section of the 75th Venice International Film Festival and winning the Grand Prize at the 31st Tokyo International Film Festival, establishing himself as a refined filmmaker.

Announcing the welcome return of director Mikael Hurst, 〈Paris, Night Travelers〉 captures the process of 'Elisabeth', who puts an end to her marriage, unexpectedly building a bond with the young girl 'Talula' through a warm lens, officially invited to the competition section of the 72nd Berlin International Film Festival, once again proving its artistic merit. Mikael Hurst stated, "I have always been drawn to stories of characters who, when unexpectedly hitting a wall in life, find themselves again somehow. I wanted to depict the energy, generosity, and independence they experience as they gradually become freer."

Additionally, the film has received rave reviews from international media, describing it as "delicacy following Eric Rohmer" (Filmstarts.de), "a dazzling direction that you can't take your eyes off, with amazing details evoking 1980s France" (Next Best Picture), and "elegantly shows that what seems like ordinary time is actually never ordinary" (Globe and Mail), generating anticipation for a work that highlights Mikael Hurst's unique soft sensibility.
