I came across this film on a darknet I frequent (don’t ask).
In thread where Ophra Winfrey’s support of the “The Secret” was being discussed , and the dreadful “What the #$*! Do We (K)now!?” was being lambasted, there was universal praise for Mindwalk.
As Daily Muse puts it, the film:
..follows an artist, a politician and a physicist in conversation as they walk around the Isle of Mont Saint-Michel‚ is arguably one of the most beautiful creations in the world. As their tour and discussion progresses you begin to realize that they are essentially walking around the mind of man. It is heavy. But mind blowing. Particularly if you‚ have never heard of systems theory.
You can watch some of it at the Daily Muse site.
I fiound it quite hard to watch it all. The dialogs is hard to follow and the tone a bit preachy. I also found the political message a bit simplistic.
That said, it is definitely worth watching…if only for the Neruda poem at the end.
