Synopsis

A charming, acclaimed Icelandic road saga about a Japanese man's spiritual quest through a snowbound landscape littered with winsome native inhabitants. Hirata is forced to cancel his annual golf trip in Hawaii in order to fulfill a Japanese tradition. He must travel to the river where his parents were killed in an accident seven years earlier and perform the necessary rituals that will finally lay their souls to rest. Ari Kristinsson's gorgeous photography elevates the seemingly lighthearted counter-cultural proceedings to a deeper, more soulful level. This juxtaposition, in the tradition of Jim Jarmusch's DEAD MAN, makes COLD FEVER a relevant, lasting experience.

4.0 out of 5 stars A little gem!, 12 Jun 2004
By A Customer
Cold fever is now one of my favorite films. A simple story well told with quite beautiful cinematography. It is a revelation how wonderful Iceland looks, and the film captures it quiet magic. Its a strange road movie ? well maybe. I loved it

5.0 out of 5 stars Good....but not the best version, 9 April 2006
A great film...but the DVD differs from the version previously available on VHS, which IMHO was better. The opening scenes in Japan had previously been presented in a cropped box on screen, which then opened out to full widescreen when the plane arrives at Iceland. Subtitles have also been changed in various places too...the DVD is still worth owning, but too bad it wasn't the same as the earlier release.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice.......... and quirky, 31 Mar 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Cold Fever [VHS] [1995] (VHS Tape)
A quirky film a lot like Mystery Train (with the same Japanese actor). A road movie with a difference. If you like Mystery Train or Straight Story then this will appeal.

This Japanese Icelandic film is a kind of spiritual road trip. It is an odd ball film which has many weird characters in it. Read more
