Vimukthi Jayasundara, 2006.
This may be the only Sri Lankan film I've seen. Elliptically edited and nearly silent, "The Forsaken Land" brings to mind Taiwanese filmmaker Tsai Ming-Liang, of whom I'm a great fan, or even Lucretia Martel's excellent "La Cienaga". Jayasundara's quiet assurance with his material promises exciting things for the future.
