Synopsis:
Blu-Ray edition Region 2 UK/European format.
Winner of the Palme d'or for best film at Cannes film festival, this is the extraordinary and original visionary film by Thai director Apichatpong Weerasethakul.
Suffering from acute kindey failure, Uncle Boonmee has chosen to spend his final days surrounded by his loved ones in the countryside. Suprisingly, the ghost of his deceased wife appears to care for him, and his long lost son returns home in non human form. Contemplating the reasons for his illness, Boonmee treks through the jungle with his family to a mysterious hilltop cave - the birthplace of his previous life. He becomes immersed in memories and undergoes intense personal transformation as he surrenders to the inevitability of death.
Eerie, poetic, and masterful, Uncle Boonmee creates an enchanted world with a magical and sublime atmosphere.
However, be warned: this film is not for everyone. It is a painfully slow art house film which left many cinema goers bored and others walked out. A bizarre film to either love or loathe.
In Thai language with English subtitles. Certificate 12 years and over. |
