From
the back cover:
In the spirit of such
independent classics as Jim Jarmusch's Mystery Train,
COLD FEVER is a witty and mystical journey of spiritual rebirth.
Atsushi Hirata (Mystery Train's Masotoshi Nagese), a
young Japanese executive, is forced to give up his yearly golf
trip to Hawaii to perform a traditional memorial ceremony for his
parents in the middle of Iceland. Chugging across the haunting,
frozen landscapes in an old Citroen, Atsushi encounters a place
as surreal as the land itself - a place of boiled sheep's heads,
nature spirits, Icelandic cowboys, a potent liquor called Black
Death and oddball American hitchhikers (Lili Taylor, I Shot
Andy Warhol and Fisher Stevens, TV's Early Edition).
But in the end, this quirky, mystical travelogue becomes a
personal quest for redemption as Atsushi makes peace with the
dead, and more importantly, himself.
