The Hawaiʻi International Film Festivalʻs 2024 Spring Showcase is featuring GREEN NIGHT on March 24-25.  This thrilling feminist noir, shot in both Korean and Mandarin, premiered at the Berlin International Film Festival, and stars Fan Bingbing and Lee Joo-Young (BROKER, ITAEWON CLASS).

After a chance encounter, two women find themselves in the underbelly of Seoul in this tale of survival. Chinese immigrant Xia (Chinese superstar Fan Bingbing) works as airport security staff in South Korea. When she catches a spunky, green-haired drug smuggler on the job, Xia is unexpectedly beguiled by the wayward girl.

Seeking freedom from the abusive men in their lives, the duo embark on an arduous night in Seoul’s drug underworld. But when blood spills, the women go on the run, with only each other to rely on. From their shared predicament blooms a deep tenderness and solidarity, bound by the desire to escape oppression. GREEN NIGHT adapts film noir’s gritty masculinity to portray a female bond that is gentle yet unflinching in the will to survive.
