Sang-Jin is looking for peace and quiet so he can finish his screenplay. In that respect, his producer´s hut in the mountains may not be the ideal place – but it offers plenty of inspiration. Enough events take place here to fill three films. Timid Sang-Jin finds he has uninvited and unwanted company from a jailbird, his brother (a chief of police), a group of skiers (including a beautiful girl) and a couple of local poachers. They all get snowed in, telephones stop working, a murder is committed and Sang-Jin is accused of voyeurism and attempted rape. Director Noh Young-Seok proved his talent for dry, black humour – often compared to Jim Jarmusch’s early work – in his debut Daytime Drinking. In this successor, he creates an even more genial mix of thriller andcomedy of errors. More seriously, Intruders is also a commentary on all the modern distractions that get in the way of the creative process.
