Kinamand (2005)
Starring: Bjarne Henriksen, Vivian Wu
Director: Henrik Ruben Genz
Country: Denmark
Genre: Foreign, Drama
This Danish film revolves around a plumber whose marriage has just fallen apart, and who can’t seem to remember the passion in his life. His life changes when the owner of a Chinese restaurant that he frequents asks him to marry his sister. Kinamand is simple. It is a short-and-sweet story with straightforward character arcs and a story that doesn’t deviate much from its subject. This allows for some very quiet, but effective performances from its actors as well as some beautifully unobtrusive directing. It plays off a lot like an Alexander Payne film, though not focused as much on humor as it is on a hopeful outlook. It’s a very understated film that I don’t think many people would seek out on their own… but they should.
