JSA: Joint Security Area
This harrowing political thriller from South Korea rides on the trend of phenomenally popular action blockbusters from East Asia. In the extremely sensitive Joint Security Area on the North/South Korean borders, shots are fired and two soldiers (one North and one South Korean) are killed. A South Korean soldier who refuses to reveal any details is investigated by a neutral Swiss military team. The ironic and shocking truth slowly begins to unravel.
