Shannyn Sossamon, Patrick Fugit and Tom Waits star in this black comedy romance set in a strange afterlife reserved for people who have committed suicide, based on a story by the imaginative Etgar Keret
Life is a trip, but the afterlife is one hell of a ride. Zia, distraught over breaking up with his girlfriend, decides to end it all. Unfortunately, he discovers that there is no real ending, only a run-down afterlife that is strikingly similar to his old one, just a bit worse. Discovering that his ex-girlfriend has also “offed” herself, he sets out on a road trip, with his Russian rocker friend, to find her. Their journey takes them through an absurd purgatory where they discover that being dead doesn’t mean you have to stop livin’! (USA/UK, 2006, 88 min., Rated R | Dir. Goran Dukic)
