Perth (2004)

Synopsis of Perth

A part-time security guard and taxi driver looking to leave the hypocrisy of the modern world behind finds that peace doesn't come as easily as he suspected in Singapore-born director Djinn's award-winning drama. Harry Lee has grown tired with the slick, status-driven society that dominates his homeland, and has chose to seek out his own personal paradise in the Western Australian city of Perth. But solving ones problems isn't always as easy as simply running away, and when Harry finds his attempt to migrate becoming increasingly complicated, he accepts a job ferrying prostitutes. Upon growing infatuated with one particularly tragic Vietnamese prostitute, Harry is suddenly awakened to the darkness that surrounds him and determines to embark on a dangerous quest to seek redemption as his situation grows increasingly unstable. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
