This rich, symbolic, intensely personal yet universal film wordlessly follows the path of a woman on a journey of self-discovery.
What is the purpose of our existence ? What is the soul ? Which are the power of mind, of conscience ? What is our link to nature ? Pondering these existential questions, this movie invites us to find out an universal wisdom, meeting shamans, healers, yogis, but also philosophers and doctors. From Mongolia plains to the Amazonian forest, it leads us far than we expected at first.
The spiky-haired British clairvoyant ("Life Among the Dead") returns for a five-episode encore featuring Williams doing one-on-one readings both in a studio and in impromptu meetings with random people to whom she is drawn while walking on the street.
Her spiky hair and outgoing manner may make her look more like a top 40 vocalist than a clairvoyant, but vivacious Lisa Williams has known since childhood that she is able to communicate with the dead, a gift that has garnered her a long list of clients both in the United States and her native England. This hourlong series follows Williams -- whose grandmother, Frances Glazebrook, reportedly provided psychic services to the British royal family -- to various American locales as she meets with clients and also offers impromptu readings to strangers she meets on the street.
