Apichatpong Weerasethakul's UNCLE BOONMEE WHO CAN RECALL HIS PAST LIVES Screens at Film at Lincoln Center
/Thai visionary Apichatpong Weerasethakul drifts through dream states in this Palme d’Or-winning jungle ghost story in which a dying man reconnects with the spirit of his dead wife as he journeys through his previous lives. Suffused with references to Thai mythology and the country’s classic cinema, this lushly surreal, profoundly mysterious work unfolds with the otherworldly aura of a trance.
It is being presented as part of the program Danny Glover and Louverture Films, a Series Embodying the Work of an Actor, Activist, and a Groundbreaking Production Company on Dec. 3 and 4.
GME distributes Weerasethakul’s MYSTERIOUS OBJECT AT NOON (2000) on DVD/DSL bundle to North American educational markets.
