Directed by Kang Dae Jin, The Coachman was the first Korean film to win a major international award, the Silver Bear from the 1961 Berlin International Film Festival. A sensitive human drama, The Coachman tells the tale of a single father (Kim Seung Ho), who makes ends meet operating a horse-drawn cart, while watching over his two sons and two daughters. Korea is rapidly changing in the wake of the Korean War, with modernization and the advent of the automobile threatening to condemn the coachman to obsolescence. Meanwhile, the children face their own issues, from abusive spouses to petty crime, and the father begins to question if this brave new Korea has a place for him anymore. A touching film encompassing hope, heartache, and the crushing reality of a changing world, The Coachman easily earns its reputation as a Korean Cinema classic. This edition comes with a 68-page booklet and a postcard set .
