The TVI Take
Hong Sang-soo's 2012 Isabelle Huppert film about a French woman in a Korean seaside town, the structural premise is that the protagonist plays three different versions of the same character across three intersecting story branches. The structural commitment to multi-perspective formalism at compressed scale (sub-90-minute runtime) is canonical Hong improvisation-based directorial work.
