#35. Headshot
Director/Writer: Pen-ek Ratanaruang
Producers: Pawas Sawatchaiyamet and Raymond Phathanavirangoon
Distributor: Rights Available.
The Gist: Adapted from the novel Fon Tok Kuen Fa (Rain Falling Up The Sky) by award-winning writer Win Leowarin, this tells the story of a hitman (Nopachai Jayanama) who wakes up after a two-month coma to find that he literally sees everything upside down. He tries to quit his job, but the past starts to catch up with him.….(more)
Cast: Nopachai Jayanama and Cris Horwang
List Worthy Reasons…: Despite not being big on his last pair Ploy and Nymph as we mentioned before, we damn well love the concept of shooting from the perspective of the film’s lead and with dp Chankit Chamnivikaipong once again onboard we expect this to visually deliver.
Release Date/Status?: Somewhere in post-production, Ratanaruang (a Cannes regular) will be back in May…but the big question is which section will it fall in? Main Comp or Un Certain Regard?
