mr. cheung - movie poster - invisible waves



invisible waves, by pen-ek ratanaruang, shot by christopher doyle, starring tadanobu asano. this film is surreal and slow, in a good way.

here is the original poster:



kyoji is a japanese cook living in macau. he works for a thai restaurant and sleeps with his boss' wife. his boss finds out and orders him to poison her. he does so. he flees to phuket, thailand. strange things happen to him on his journey there. will he reach his destination and, if so, is it where he wants to be?

i tried to design a poster that captures the film's displaced and paranoid mood while using the visual effects of waves...
