The small community is that of a Catholic seminary, where Seo-hyeon (Seo Jang-won) is studying to become a priest. The young man has been there for three years and has proved himself to be a top student, but while theory is all very well, he is finding it much harder to deal with the practical necessity of leaving his old life behind him. It surely shouldn't be so difficult to identify the correct way to behave in such situations, but Seo-hyeon only sees the actions he believes to be right causing pain in those around him.Filming in Korea, Min Byung-hoon's third feature confirms that he is not so much interested in making a socio-political commentary on the places he films, as much as using their situations to delve into basic human nature, using remote locations whose "purity" can provide a means to examine how personal ideals and traditional community values can be maintained when confronted with real-world pressures. When Seo-hyeon's actions are often misjudged and the consequences can be very serious indeed in Pruning The Grapevine, it might seem like the director is challenging whether such idealism, particularly in religious belief, is practical.
