The Winner of the International People’s Choice Award at TIFF 2025, “No Other Choice” follows
Man-soo, who has the perfect life: the family of his dreams, two dogs and a beautiful house. 

Then, after 25 years at the same company, he is given the ax. Jump ahead, and after being unemployed for several years, his life is falling apart. He is behind on his mortgage payments and his wife wants to sell the house where he grew up.

But desperate to scoop a coveted position at another company he devises a unique plan to eliminate his competition.

Adapted from a novel by Donald E. Westlake (The Ax), “No Other Choice” is a wickedly clever takedown of the corporate rat race and ruthless status-seeking.

“No Other Choice isn't just Park's funniest film, but his most humane, too – and that's quite something for a comedy as violent as this one.” - Nicholas Barber, BBC.com

“The rare film that feels sympathetic toward its protagonist without ever rooting for him, and Lee’s elastic performance as Man-su is key to the balancing act of Park’s tragicomic tone.” - David Ehrlich, IndieWire
