This film grasps universal meaning of the search of humanity as an entity thru a simple spoken story and powerful, very carefully picket images. Times loses its matter meaning and enters the login of endlessness of ones thoughts. the concept that inspired this film has a very deep spiritual message, and the direction is no less then complete. this film also proves the beauty of simplicity, and the power of the essential foundation upon a film is built on. No Hollywood production could ever compare itself to one mans vision and goal, that achieves expression actively and wildly in one film. all participant were fully aware of the directors direction and all were followed in perfect harmony.Very well Done.
