Review of Far Side of the Moon (2003) by Steven P — 02 May 2010

Lepage creates a perfectly interwoven story depicting the banality of life and the constant search for meaning in a vast and often unforgiving universe. I particularly like the way he uses space as a way of making human existence seem small.

Compared to the expansive size of the cosmos, our little blue marble, our daily lives, our hopes (dreams, fears, etc.) seem almost insignificant. It was a bit slow at times but he makes for that with interesting visuals, a beautiful score, and a great double performance and creates an imaginative, often depressing view of life.
