"So you get to forget? That is heaven."

after life - 7.5/10. Korean. A weird experiment, half documentary, half movie. A group of people are brought to a waystation between life and death in order to determine which memory they want to relive over and over for the rest of their life, with some of the people being not actors, recounting real memories, and then having them recreated to take with them. There's a plot weaved through, about the potential love between two of the waystation workers, and it's strong, but just the simple fact that it's two hours of people recounting their favorite moments, these stupid, small moments - it can't help but to get to me.
