Angel-A - 2005

Suggested to me by a friend, and visually one of the most beautiful films I have seen, this outing by Luc Besson is definitely one I recommend.

Deep in debt, small-time hoodlum André (Jamel Debbouze) decides to end his life on his own terms before his unsavory creditors come calling. But as he's poised to dive off a bridge, he meets the mysterious Angela (Rie Rasmussen), who seems just as desperate. The event changes André's entire outlook, and the unlikely duo soon sets out on a mission to solve André's formidable list of problems and get his life back in order again discovering that companionship can make even the most difficult life worth living
