TIME: the woman, man’s sculpture

Time | Kim Ki Duk | 2006

Abstract

This article analyzes director Kim Ki Duk’s film ‘Time’ (2006) from a psychoanalytical perspective. Particularly, it examines the impact of the
capitalist discourse on the relationship between the sexes. The theory of the four discourses, together with the issue of otherness in the feminine position, themes that were developed by psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan, were the guiding influences behind our analysis of this film.

Key words: Otherness | Medical discourse | Femininity

This article is, for the time being, only available in Spanish: Time: la mujer, escultura del hombre
