Is The Handmaiden on Netflix United States?

Sorry, The Handmaiden (2016) isn't available on Netflix United States, but is available in a different country.

A woman is hired as a handmaiden to a Japanese heiress, but secretly she is involved in a plot to defraud her. A con man's plan to steal an heiress's heart -- and her fortune -- gets complicated when she falls for the handmaid he hired to help with his scheme. From Park Chan-wook, the celebrated director of Oldboy, Lady Vengeance and Stoker, comes a ravishing new crime drama. Park presents a gripping and sensual tale of two women - a young Japanese Lady living on a secluded estate, and a Korean woman who is hired to serve as her new handmaiden, but is secretly plotting with a conman to defraud her of a large inheritance. Inspired by the novel Fingersmith by British author Sarah Waters, The Handmaiden borrows the most dynamic elements of its source material and combines it with Park Chan-wook’s singular vision to create an unforgettable viewing experience.
