Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives (2010)

After an year-long hybernation period, I have returned from the darkness bringing you Apichatpong Weerasethakul's Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives, a film that flatens many existences and realms once separated by the restrictions of time, space, and societal norms. A beautiful visual rendering of a book from 1983 called A Man Who Can Recall His Past Lives by Buddhist abbot Phra Sripariyattiwet. A terminal illness thins out otherwise physical barriers of existence as Boonmee navigates through past lives to find reason and understanding.
