Dohee-ya has been invited to the Cannes Film Festival as part of the non-competitive section, and been highly praised by film critics.
The movie, starring Bae Doo-na and 15-year-old Kim Sae-ron, shows an encounter between a police woman and a mysterious girl who was abused by her family.
The U.K. and Italy also decided to distribute Dohee-ya. Distribution negotiations are also underway in Japan, sources said.
