Directed by Wong Kar Wai90 min
Fallen Angels follows a professional killer and his partner in crime who he rarely sees. After 3 years of working together he wants out. He embarks on his last hit but first he has to overcome his affections for his cool, detached partner. Thinking it's dangerous and improper to become involved with a colleague he sets out to find a surrogate for his affections. Against the sordid and surreal urban nightscape set in contemporary Hong Kong, he crosses path with a strange drifter looking for her mysterious ex-boyfriend and an amusing mute trying to get the world's attention in his own unconventional ways. The mute (caused by eating expired cans of pineapples for a month when he was 5 years old) breaks into restaurants, cafés and ice-cream trucks at night and forces people to buy his goods!
Comedy and tragedy walking hand in hand into the horizon..
