Description:

No Other Choice is a gripping psychological thriller about Man Su, a man who seemingly had it all, including a loving wife named Mi Ri, two talented children, and their beautiful forest-enclosed childhood home. After dedicating twenty-five loyal years to Solar Paper and winning the Pulp Man of the Year award in 2019, he is suddenly laid off. Soon, financial ruin looms, and Mi Ri insists on selling their beloved home. Desperate to secure a coveted new position at Moon Paper, Man Su realizes he faces stiff competition from equally qualified rivals. To guarantee his success, he hatches a dark and desperate plan. He invents a phony paper company, contacts his rivals under false pretenses, and lures them into a meeting to eliminate the competition one by one. Adapted from the novel The Ax by Donald E. Westlake, this film explores the extreme lengths a man will go to protect his family.
