Life of Pi


A visually stunning film. One that leaves you mildly wondering between fact and fiction. Alas, you find yourself watching an interaction that you would normally deem unimaginable; a boy and a tiger, adrift at sea.

Religion, God, Humans, and Animals all play an enormous part of this film. While a boy holds onto faith, he learns what is inside him, and what can be deep inside others as well.

"Based on the best-selling novel by Yann Martel, is a magical adventure story centering on Pi Patel, the precocious son of a zoo keeper. Dwellers in Pondicherry, India, the family decides to move to Canada, hitching a ride on a huge freighter. After a shipwreck, Pi finds himself adrift in the Pacific Ocean on a 26-foot lifeboat with a zebra, a hyena, an orangutan and a 450-pound Bengal tiger named Richard Parker, all fighting for survival."  (As read on IMDB)
