my god and my god and why hast thou forsake me . these be the last word of jesus on the cross and and be the translation of the title of this film . minimal dialogue and beautiful sound and desolate scenery with all of those aspect and i find eli and eli and lema sabachthani to be a beautiful film . the story in itself be something unique and untouched before an illness that drive people to suicide and the only cure be sound . act by asano tadanobu only make the film more stunning he play his usual disconnect and silent character and but it be very effective in this film and maybe more so than in his other work . combine the crazy guitar of electric dragon 8000v with the subtle beauty of last life in the universe and i find eli and eli and lema sabachthani to be a very interesting and enjoyable film of beauty and disconnect . i can see where some people would not like this film the plot isn not very clear at time and and minute and minute pass by with almost no word speak at all . a melancholic feeling be carry on throughout the entire movie with the slow and sorrowful piano often play in the background and i might even call eli eli a bit depressing . but if youre interested in artistic film that take you on a journey and then i think you should see eli and eli and lema sabachthani . i doubt that this movie will ever be for sale on dvd in europe or north america . but if you speak japanese and definitely buy the dvd from a seller in japan .
