From visionary director Park Chan-wook (Oldboy, Stoker) comes The Handmaiden, a sumptuous and exhilarating period thriller inspired by Sarah Waters’ best-selling novel Fingersmith. Set during the Japanese occupation of Korea in the 1930s, a young handmaiden named Sookee (newcomer Kim Tae-ri) is hired by Hideko (Kim Min-hee, No Tears for the Dead), a reclusive heiress who lives in a sprawling mansion under the watchful eye of her domineering Uncle Kouzuki (Cho Jin-woong, Assassination). But Sookee harbours a secret: she has been recruited by Fujiwara (Ha Jung-woo, The Chaser, The Yellow Sea), a scheming con artist posing as a Japanese Count, to trick Hideko into entrusting him with her fortune. However, when Sookee and Hideko begin to develop unexpected emotions for each other, they start putting together a plan of their own. This special edition box set contains both the theatrical and the extended cuts of the film plus other bonus features.
