Old Partner, a Korean documentary that premiered at Sundance, is set to break two box office records. The producers spent no money on television advertising yet remarkably the film is projected to bring in $728,000, making it the highest grossing Indie AND Documentary film in Korean history. The plot follows an old frail farmer and his trusty Ox, a 40-year old beast who he pampers like a child. The film has left most major studios stunned, surviving solely on word of mouth for advertising. The film also gives hope for other Korean Independent companies who have been paid little attention to in the past. More about the farmer and the ox.
