Join Canterbury Film Society for our Monday night screening of Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives (Apichatpong Weerasethakul • 2010 • 114 mins • Thailand • M)
Suffering from acute kidney failure, Uncle Boonmee has chosen to spend his final days surrounded by his loved ones in the forest of north-eastern Thailand. He is joined by the ghost of his deceased wife, who appears to care for him, and his long-lost son, returning in non-human form. "It is one of those rare films that contribute to the sum of human happiness: it certainly increased the sum of my happiness." Peter Bradshaw (The Guardian)
