MUMBAI: What would happen if your soul gets lost??? Care to know!! Pix brings to you this month its hand picked movie ? ?Cold Souls? which is all set to air exclusively on August 21, 2010. Directed and written by Sophie Barthes, get to know the difference between reality and fantasy only on PIX.
Writer/director Sophie Barthes crafts this metaphysical tragicomedy, which straddles the line between reality and fantasy, set in a world where souls are extracted from humans and traded as commodites. Paul Giamatti is an anxious New Yorker who finds the answer to his deep-rooted malaise after stumbling upon an article about a high-tech company that claims to have found a solution to human suffering. By deep-freezing souls, claims the company, they can give their customers a life free from fear, doubt, and worry. Eager to free himself from the emotional burden of angst, Giamatti eagerly enlists their services. Trouble arises, however, when Giamatti‘s soul is swiped by a soul-trafficking "mule" who in turn gives it to a no-talent Russian soap opera actress. Now, in order to get back the soul that is rightfully his, Giamatti must make the arduous trip to St. Petersburg, along the way discovering that the true key to happiness isn‘t the absence of pain, but the ability to experience the entire spectrum of emotion and cherish the things that really matter.
PIX brings to you, another facet of the talented actor Giamatti, who plays himself in the film. For a second, his versatility will actually make you think who is real and who is reel! Cold Souls is a contemporary Hollywood flick; slow, plodding, and full of ideas more than action. Yet despite the complex themes and metaphysical debate, Cold Souls is a true soul searching comedy!!
DON?T MISS THIS TRUE SOUL SEARCHING COMEDY ONLY ON PIX ON AUGUST 21, 2010 at 9pm.
