jpg It is a very rare event that I watch a movie twice in one day, and yesterday I did just that.

This film is not everyone's "cup of tea" but it's storyline resonated in me. It is slow going, thoughtful, scientific, spiritual, romantic, dramatic.

Its strong point is the resonance between science and spirituality - it vibrates best between those two realms and gets downright scary in spots.

There are several short conversations that (to me) are profound questions / revelations / viewpoints.

Very briefly, the storyline is this: A scientist discovers that some people (and his newborn son is one of them) have the eyes that someone else once had. Literally - the same eyes. This leads him to search for a young child in India (he lives in NY) who shows up in a global database to have the eyes of his dead wife. That search forces him (again, he's a scientist) to confront two questions:

* If something spiritual happened to you that discounted science, would you change your belief on that subject?
* Are you ready to believe something exists that is beyond your capability to perceive it?

This is a film you allow to flow over you and provoke you to think outside that little box you keep your soul in.

So .......

Do universes exist like nested shells, each one (going outward) having more dimensions, more realities, more sensations, more spirituality than the ones it encloses?

Are there a select few souls who can occasionally glimpse into the next larger universe?

Are you ready to believe that something exists beyond your abilities to perceive it, or even to sense it?
