The Butcher's Skin

Work:: The Butcher's Skin (S1316832388)

A wonderful Vietnamese comedy of mistaken identity, The Butcher's Skin tells the story of Truong Ba, a gentle gardener accidentally struck off the Book of Life by careless gods. Pursued by Troung Ba's feisty wife, the gods are forced to reincarnate his soul into Hoi, a violent, alcoholic butcher with a wife who starts to appreciate her 'new man' - Troung Ba's troubles are only just beginning... A charming and delightful story, both light-hearted and thought provoking, The Butcher's Skin also gives a rare glimpse into the daily lives of ordinary people on the other side of the world.
