UNCLE BOONMEE WHO RECALLS HIS PAST LIVES
Directed by Apichatpong Weerasethakul
114 minutes
"It's a film that will linger in your thoughts and dreams for a long time after waking from its intoxicating slumber."
Winner of the 2010 Cannes Film Festival Palme D'Or, Uncle Boonmee who Recalls His Past Lives is a highly original meditation on reincarnation and past lives. Uncle Boonmee, suffering from a fatal kidney disorder, has opted to spend his last days in the jungle of Thailand with his loved ones. As death approaches, he comes face to face with the incarnations of his past lives. At first, the non-linear plot and slow patches may be disconcerting but its moments of profundity will affect you for a lifetime.
This film has won numerous awards, is a critic favorite and is directed by a master Thai filmmaker. I am taking a chance bringing this unfamiliar film but I wanted to present something out of the ordinary and a film that you might never have a chance to see.
