- Synopsis
- A mysterious, obsessive-compulsive, suicidal Japanese man living in Bangkok, Thailand, is thrown together with a Thai woman through a tragic chain of events. The woman is everything he is not. He is a neat freak who keeps his dishes washed and his books neatly stacked and categorized. She dresses like a slob, smokes pot and never picks anything up. It's a match that somehow works, though. Slowly and entertainingly, more is revealed about the Japanese man and why he's suicidal and living in Bangkok.

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"A brilliantly atmospheric, sweetly nutty film."
-
"The stars and Doyle's expressive cinematography add up to a disarmingly seductive yet always precarious film experience."
-
"Much of the pleasure of the movie is the way its mood lingers with you afterward."
-
"It's hard to know what's really happening in the movie versus what's merely running through the characters' heads, and the poignant final shot muddies the picture even more"
-
"Cheeky and elusive, 'Last Life in the Universe' inhabits a high-lonesome world unto itself, a bright daydream that dissipates in the aching gap of a missed connection."
