Official Trailer

The personal cost of corporate downsizing in the midst of a booming economy becomes the satirical target of No Other Choice. The film follows Man-su in his desperate struggle to secure his wife, Miri, their two children, and his hard-earned home. Once highly satisfied with his achievement-filled life, Man-su faces sudden dismissal from his job and begins preparing for his own war of survival. A farcical and humorous crimefest, No Other Choice amplifies the inhumanity of modern industry, with AI and robot machines that make human workers quite superfluous on the factory floor. Full of unexpected twists, this film is both darkly funny and harrowingly chilling. 2025 Toronto International Film Festival Audience Choice Award.
