Wristcutters

After killing himself, Zia finds himself in an afterlife that is somewhere between hell and everyday life - working in a pizza kitchen. This afterlife, which is strictly for suicide casualties, is a post-apocalyptic-like desert; where no one smiles, its always "hot as balls", and no stars come out at night. Along with his Russian companion, Eugene, Zia sets out to find his girlfriend who apparently took her own life shortly after he did. They eventually pick up Mikal, a beautiful drifter who's determined to find "the people in charge" to protest her presence in this particular afterlife
Its hard to imagine that they'll ever reach any kind of destination in such an odd world, but the means gradually start to feel like an acceptable end. The film's desaturated colors and the almost complete lack of everyday distractions make us all wonder if it's all just a dream. Croatian-born director Goran Dukic wisely tells this story through the lens of a real road movie, where you're not sure where you're headed, and the twists in the road are all strange and charming. He scores 'Wristcutters' with gypsy-like polka and casts none other than Tom Waits as a wise man looking for his dog. As Zia and Mikal, Patrick Fugit and Shannyn Sossamon are both actors that excel at not having any real cinematic charm, but are both so direct and honest that you feel an instant connection to them.
Committing suicide again apparently leads to an even worse fate, so the characters seem to be left to make the best of such an empty life. Whether the film is an ode to the suicidal or a swan song about second chances, 'Wristcutters' is a worthy fable that is much like the crooked tree that survives in Waits' sermon: strong and strange.
