Gozu
Prolific Japanese director Takeshi Miike presents his most unusual film yet with a film that is by turns surreal, horrific and hilarious. Young Yakuza Minami is ordered to kill his eccentric best friend and boss, but when he reluctantly drives him into the countryside to finish the deed, loses the unconcious body! Wandering through a small town, Minami encounters madmen, an American reading cue-cards, a lactating woman and a bull-headed man in what may be a search for his boss, a walk through his conscience or a trawl through the male psycho-sexual state.
