Introduction
A merciless hit man rescues a prostitute from a violent incident in a Philippine slum before the two take flight.
Though Khavn, a standard-bearer of the digital age in the Philippines, has already established himself as a director of countless films, he is also an accomplished poet and musician. The bewildering visuals and punk-opera soundtrack expertly convey a world that extends far beyond the dialogue. As the story unfolds, a poetic sentiment wafts out of the chaos, signaling a collision of the director’s many talents. According to Khavn, various events occur as part of a daydream or nightmare, and though we may not remember the particulars, the emotions remain. Inviting the masterful Australian cinematographer Christopher Doyle to help him realize his vision, Khavn captures the extreme yet sweet emotions of a hit man (played by Asano Tadanobu) and a prostitute (Mexican actress Nathalia Acevedoas) as they flee through the slums. The addition of a German producer marks the advent of a truly international Asian cinema.
