Three by Lee Isaac Chung
Though he has only recently come to mainstream attention with his highly lauded, Oscar-nominated Minari , Lee Isaac Chung has been quietly crafting some of the most thoughtful and resonant works of contemporary American independent cinema for more than a decade. Interwoven with references to poetry and folklore, Chung’s films are fascinating, lyrical explorations of the landscapes, characters, and cultures that interest him—from Rwanda, where he shot his revelatory debut, to a fictionalized reimagining of New York City in the surreal fable Abigail Harm .
