Synopsis
Wristcutters: A Love Story (2007) is a deadpan romantic fantasy you can watch online on iFILM. Goran Dukić's debut drops its hero into a drab afterlife reserved for people who took their own lives.
Zia (Patrick Fugit) wakes up in a faded version of the world he left: the same crummy bars, the same dead-end pizza job, jukeboxes that never quite work. Nobody here can really smile. When he learns his ex-girlfriend ended things too, he piles into a beat-up car and goes looking for her across the gray forever. Along the way he picks up a hitchhiker, Mikal (Shannyn Sossamon), and a strange Russian named Eugene (Shea Whigham).
Adapted from a short story by Israeli writer Etgar Keret, the film trades sermons about suicide for dry, melancholy comedy. Tom Waits turns up as a desert camp guru, and the ending lands far warmer than the premise threatens. If you like road movies built on absurd humor and quiet tenderness, this one is for you.
