We all must venture out in order to discover what we have left behind. This story, based on a novel, is clearly paying homage to Homer's Odyssey and the many trials we go through as we come of age. The world is full of light but there is also much darkness. The cinematography and art direction brings this tale to life--beautiful stark colors and lighting. Rachel Portman's soundtrack is enchanting, as well.
