SEOUL, April 19 (Yonhap) -- Director Shin Su-won's film 'Hommage,’ starring actress Lee Jeong-eun, has won the Best Jury Prize at the 20th Florence Korea Film Festival.

"Hommage,” tells a fantastic time travel story of a middle-aged woman director Ji Wan, who is in a slump, restoring a film made by Korea’s second woman director Hong Eun-won in the 1960s.

Actress Lee plays her first lead role Ji wan, and actors Kwon Hae-hyo and Tang Joon-sang play Ji’s husband and son, respectively.

“Hommage” will be first revealed at Jeonju International Film Festival, which will begin in late April, and officially hit the theaters next month.
