Norwegian Wood is probably one of my favourite movies to date. It's like a Japanese version of The Perks of Being A Wallflower, except more depressing and less gay. And it's based on a Murakami novel, the novel obviously being a lot better.

General premise of the story goes as following:

> college guy with existential crisis rekindles his relationship with the girlfriend of his best friend who committed suicide a year prior while discovering himself as a person in the process

It's a very good movie to watch/book to read if you're at a point in life where you feel numb and lost. That's how I got to reading the book, and eventually the movie. By the end, you will feel like a new man.
