Last Life in the Universe

Bol Partner

Talen: Thai, Japanese & EnglishOndertitels: English Hiding from an unknown past, suicidal Japanese loner Kenji (Tadanobu Asano) seems destined for a premature rendezvous with oblivion when he meets Noi, a beautiful Thai party girl. Despite speaking different languages and barely able to communicate, Noi begins to seduce Kenji back into the chaos of life. Director Pen-ek Ratanaruang skilfully fuses a variety of genres to create a unique, dreamily stylish drama. Magnificently shot by acclaimed cinematographer Christopher Doyle (‘In The Mood For Love’), the film also features a superb performance from ‘Zatoichi’ star Asano as Kenji and a memorable cameo by cult director Takashi Miike (‘Audition’) as a deranged yakuza boss.
