CANNES 2011: Trailer For KIM KI-DUK'S ARIRANG

Kim KI-Duk's ARIRANG has appeared from nowhere to quietly creep into the line up for May's 64th Cannes Film Festival. Not much known about this one apart from its based on Korean folk song  which is intriguing though  a bit unusually vague, here's the song:

>Arirang is
about Kim Ki-duk
playing 3 roles in 1.
Through Arirang I climb over one hill in life.
Through Arirang I understand human beings, thank the nature, and accept my life as it is now.

We are now...
in the terrestrial world lurking with desires,
in the ghostly world lurking with sorrow
in the imaginary world lurking with dreams,
with no beginning nor end,
slowly going crazy.

What is affection that it still remains all around me decaying?
It's still stuck to the crown of my head, testing my emotions.
It's still hiding deep within my heart, testing my sense of compassion.
If I didn't give my heart, they would be bad people erased from memories but if I gave my heart, I couldn't let them go till the day that I die as despicable people.
Ah...
Arirang
Alright
Let's mercilessly kill each other in our hearts till we die.

Even today
I hold back as I get angry
I laugh as I get jealous
I love as I despise
And forgive as I quiver with the urge to kill.
Wait
I will kill
Myself, who remembers you.
