Finding Joe
“"We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned so as to have the life that is waiting for us." —Joseph Campbell”
2011•1h 20m•7.6•Released
Documentary
Finding Joe is an exploration of the studies of mythologist Joseph Campbell, and of their continuing influence on our culture. Through interviews with visionaries from a variety of fields—interwoven with enactments of classic tales by a sweet and motley group of kids—the film navigates the stages of what Campbell dubbed "the hero’s journey": the challenges, the fears, the dragons, the battles, and the return home as a changed person.
