If Tim Burton were to go to Japan to make a movie about two elderly sisters living in a house filled with junk, and a girl who invades their lives and spends day and night knitting a red sweater, it would be something like Wool 100%. Go to Full Review Matt Zoller Seitz New York Times 09/12/2007

06/02/2012 Velhas catadoras de lixo encontram uma menina viciada em tricô. A partir daí, segue uma jornada pelo subconsciente das velhas, representado pelos objetos que elas catam. A criança traz de volta à juventude e a possibilidade de sair do ciclo vicioso. O tricô, atividade feminina considerada pacífica e inútil se torna o grande meio de ação pelo qual as personagens ganham domínio sobre sua própria vida. Tricotar é criar vida. Grande sacada dessa trama surreal. See more 01/06/2012 This is essentially an absurdist Japanese Fairy Tale. Not everything always entirely makes sense but it's made quite obvious that it really isn't meant to. It's a very odd little film that packs a quarter-ton of whimsy in a 100-pound bag. See more 01/26/2011 What a lovely refreshing original movie. Surreal,eccentric and tangential in nature. Visually stunning and do get the dolby surround sound out for the quirky musical score. See more 10/20/2010 I love it but not so sure about what it is!!! See more 10/08/2010 Wow... Um. This was so crazy-awesome! Very weird, and pretty confusing. Just when it begins to make some sort of sense, the film ends! A very fun little flick... See more 06/06/2010 Unique, intriguing, surreal, thought-provoking fable. Beautifully shot. Great little picture. See more Read all reviews
