Blissfully Yours

Independent Thai writer and director Apichatpong Weerasethakul made his feature debut with contemplative and experimental film about ordinary people as they seek love and peace in a day. A female factory worker is in love with a Burmese refugee and tries to get him work permit through her friend. Weerasethakul introduces the forest motive that he explores in all of his feature films. It's the source of mystery and beauty. Also the strongest sequence in the film is the one in the forest where love is made and flourished. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
