Plot:	Postman Sawaki's life is boring and stagnant until the day he runs into a drug dealer, a hit man, and a girl staying in hospital due to terminal cancer. However, these new acquaintances become evidence of a great conspiracy in the eyes of the police.
Overview:	Postman Sawaki's life has been downright boring and stagnant until the day he runs into an old pal, Noguchi, a drug dealer. Delivering a sale note, he visits Noguchi's apartment and leaves with a pack of amphetamine and Noguchi's freshly cut finger unknowingly. From reading letters in his mailbag, Sawaki gets to know Sayoko, a girl staying in hospital due to terminal cancer. In the hospital he also befriends hit man Joe. These new interests in his life, however, become evidence of a great conspiracy in the eyes of the police. And Sawaki ends up famous nationwide--by becoming a wanted suspect whose profiles is broadcasted on every channel. Director Sabu's second feature after the sensational debut "D.A.N.G.A.N. RUNNER", "Postman Blues" shows an excellent blend of humor, satire, and sentiment. And Luc Besson and Wong Kar-Wai would be too happy to see Leon The Professional and Brigitte Lin in blonde wig re-incarnated in the film.
