I need a Region 0 dvd player: Reason #1

FUNKY FOREST: THE FIRST CONTACT
I saw this film last year at the Toronto After Dark Film Festival and it is virtually impossible to explain it to anyone! Here's what I've come up with: Imagine you wake up one day in Japan, not knowing how you arrived and still a little groggy from the chloroform. There's a tv on in the room, but someone keeps changing the channel before you can grasp the gist of any particular show. That's what it felt like to me, and I loved it! Unfortunately, this wacky surreal odyssey is only available as a region 2 dvd.
