Official poster for film "Penny Pinchers" [Filament Pictures]

A Korean movie starring actress Han Ye-seul and actor Song Joong-ki will be screened at an upcoming film festival in Japan.

According to the 4th annual Okinawa International Movie Festival's website, Han and Song's pic "Penny Pinchers" will be shown during the fest which will take place in Okinawa for eight days starting March 24.

This year the Okinawa International Movie Festival will run under the theme of 'laugh & peace' and screen related local and foreign movies to the audience.

Penny Pinchers" will tell about the money-building adventure of two young people who are trying to accumulate their asset up to 200 million won.

Song plays a pathetic college graduate named Ji-woong who is always depending on his mom for extra cash while hardly earning a thing for himself. Han's character Hong-shil is the complete opposite of Song, a ruthless penny pincher who denounces all activities that involve wasting money.

The movie fared well in the local box office since its nationwide release in November of last year.
