American philosopher Joseph Campbell was convinced that great breakthroughs could take place at the point of breakdown. If he were alive today, perhaps he would say that a pandemic-driven disruption of this scale, despite its tragic consequences, presents a magnificent opportunity for a global reboot.
Such questioning is at the center of conscious film favorite Finding Joe, a deeply touching documentary exploring universal truths about human nature and our love of adventure, passion, testing ourselves in the face of fear and finding meaning in all that we do. A truly inspirational film, Finding Joe takes us on the ultimate hero's journey: the journey of self discovery.
The film features a stellar group of writers and filmmakers who comment on the different dimensions of Joseph Campbell's vision of life: they include Deepak Chopra, Rashida Jones, Robin Sharma, Catherine Hardwicke, Sir Ken Robinson, Akiva Goldsman, Alan Cohen, Joseph Marshall III, Chungliang Al Huang, Gay Hendricks, and others.
