It was a great movie. I was touched not merely emotionally but the whole living pressence of myself, my life and all thats me.
The movie, though encircles the solving of a mystery murder plot of a dead space facility employer, reveals the undying truth in life; the way of the living.

It tells, of, a world so unlike of ours, yet runs parallel, where friends, hidden from sight but true to the heart, who would reveal, in times of the desperate, not to forsake you. Friends who would give you their all, not to discriminate, not to judge your physical being or social status, but value the self within, beyond what the mind or flesh can reveal.

It tells of a man, not allowing life to define him, but harness beyond what life could do for him to reach for the stars. The sacrifice, of everything he once stood for, of his identity, of his all, to fulfil life's aspirations was something deeply-felt in my heart. How many of us, choose to fulfil our life and sacrifice our dreams? Can dreams really be something not even life can replace? The man chose a path less taken, one that would mean that existence, a mere genesis in the creation of a state of mind, having left redundant, in its place, the quest for a dream come true.

It tells, of a soul, born to a world handicapped, yet not built to resign to fate, and fights all odds to achieve all that which was beyond his horizon. Knowing that one must fight on, in this long march of life, and problems are mere stones in the way, keep walking and they are left behind, further and further behind. As Vincent, the character spoke, "I never swam back".

The story melted me from within. Some things in life can't be altered; what you are borned with, what you have gone through, but more importantly,
Can't forsake the dreams you have.

Not for others,
not for your life,

Do it for your destiny.
