69,PEN-EK RATANARUANG (1999). There is nothing kinky about this film, even with a title like 69. Instead, it’s a fun comedy from the director of Last Life in the Universe – a modern In the Mood for Love – set in Thailand, Tarantino-style—we’re not quite sure who inspired whom.
ADDRESS UNKNOWN, KIM KI-DUK (2001). Ki-duk almost always offers some kind of salvation to his characters, who typically have endured a hard and tough life. In this complex flick, the director looks at life on the border between North and South Korea in the midst of the Cold War.
PATHER PANCHALÍ, APARAJITO & APUR SANSAR, SATYAJIT RAY (1955, 1956 & 1959). Known as the Apu Trilogy, these three cinematic classics tell the life of a Bengali named Apu. Set in a non-kitsch, non-Bollywood India, they’ll leaving you smiling and satisfied.
NATURALEZA MUERTA, JIA ZHANG KE (2006). Set in The Three Gorges Dam in China, this minimalist film brings the viewers deep into life in China. A hunt, a reservoir, UFOs…and a brand new life.
