10/10
A beautifully realized story of a truth on film.
15 December 2002
The simple, understated title of this film disguises the imposing grandeur of this superb dramatic production. Leave it to a British production company to bring to film an extraordinary story of the occult at a mature, intelligent level and in a spellbinding scenario tell the truth about the nature of spiritual reality…all that there really is. One is left at a loss of words to describe this triumph of filmmaking in comprehensible English language.

Set in the waning years of the Victorian era and the end of the Gilded Age, the story is compelling and engrossing. It is meticulously rendered into film with fine production values, flawlessly written, cast and directed.

Those not schooled in quantum physics or studied in extradimensional existence theory or metaphysics will more than likely be lost and left groping for answers but for those that are, here is a feast of poetic truth and the fullness of the verity of life.
