### **ABOUT THE FILM:** *In Korean with English subtitles.* Park Chan-wook (DECISION TO LEAVE) returns with a razor-sharp, darkly comic thriller adapted from Donald E. Westlake’s novel, *The Ax*. Lee Byung Hun stars as Man-su, a model employee whose life unravels when he’s abruptly laid off after 25 years. Facing mounting debts and a vanishing sense of dignity, he sets his sights on a coveted job at a rival company, only to discover the competition is fierce. His solution? Eliminate the rivals, one by one. Co-written by Park, Lee Kyoung-mi, Don McKellar and Jahye Lee, NO OTHER CHOICE is a stylish, merciless satire of ambition, corporate cruelty and the murderous lengths we’ll go to stay on top. FORMAT: DCP DISTRIBUTOR: NEON COUNTRY: South Korea
