LIFE OF PI
(2012)
Director: Ang Lee
This movie is philosophically and aesthetically beautiful. Through magnificent computer generated imagery it gives us a hiper-realistic simulacrum of the world and presents us with the incredible coexistence of faith, intellect and instinct.
"Faith is a house with many rooms. But no room for doubt?
Oh plenty, on every floor. Doubt is useful, it keeps faith a living thing. After all, you cannot know the strength of your faith until it is tested."
Life of Pi is abundant in inspirational quotes, is somewhat upsetting, also very moving and still exquisitely witty.
It gives the viewer a contrast as well as merging of two sides existing in any human. Two opposite sides enabling each other's existence. Our vegetarian and our carnivorous side. The one contemplating about ideas and ideals and the one fighting for survival. The one that gives strength and the one that gives faith, and the importance of one embracing the other.

"Above all: don't lose hope."
