A masterful, pitch-black satire from Park Chan-wook, where the ruthless job market becomes a battlefield.

Man-su is an experienced specialist in the paper industry. He lives the perfect life with his wife, two children, and two dogs in a beautiful home. But when he suddenly loses his job, his life begins to fall apart. With everything he holds dear at risk, and unable to find his way back into the workforce, Man-su sees no other choice but to devise a dark and calculated plan.

Park Chan-wook, known for Oldboy and The Handmaiden, delivers a razor-sharp satire of modern working life and capitalism's relentless demand for reinvention. Based on Donald Westlake's novel The Ax, the film blends pitch-black humour with social commentary. No Other Choice is a darkly funny film that stands alongside the best of the Coen brothers' work.
