Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives (Apichatpong Weerasethakul / Thailand)
Uncle Boonmee is dying of kidney failure and wants to spend his final days on his farm. He is joined not only by living relatives who will care for him, but also by his late wife, lost son, and other visitors from the spirit world. But this is no monster movie. Winner of the 2010 Palme d’Or at Cannes, “Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives” is a natural, free-wheeling, pensive, and dryly funny film based on Buddhist belief, cinematic history, and the folk legends from the northern region of Thailand that was the boyhood home of director Weerasethakul. Shot entirely on film (a rarity these days), “Uncle Boonmee” is a visual masterpiece not to be missed. Starring Sakda Kaewbuadee, Matthieu Ly and Thanapat Saisaymar.
