Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall his Past Lives

Takua Pa is a small town in the south of Thailand. Ever since the tsunami, people here have no jobs. Young people ride motorcycles around in circles; old people remember better times in the past. One day a stranger comes to town. Ton is an architect. He rents a room in a small hotel owned by Na. They begin to have a secret love affair but soon people start to whisper. The town has found its enemy. This film is about a love that grows where there is no more love, like a flower that grows in the dirt; and about a town that tries to destroy the beauty it cannot have for itself.
