    Enigmatic and profound

    The search for the meaning of life and existence in a reality of oblivion and the imprisonment of our daily lives is portrayed in this enigmatic piece of art. The acting is amazing!! One can only wonder where we came from and in which way have we forgotten the fundamental nature of love.

    A uniquely twisted adaptation of a deeply profound book

    Maryann Rada's "Remembrance" (and in fact, her entire body of work) feels like a living, breathing entity that continues to provide insight & perpetual relevance regardless of context and time.

    The film provides a darker perspective on the underlying message of Maryann's book, but is equally as thought provoking and, if one allows, can open the viewer up to the same intriguing and mind expanding concepts.

    Every time I read Maryann's words they take on new meanings and provide almost eerily accurate advice and relevant wisdom for the time. Lightships has the same ability to engage the viewer with intrigue and encourages a deeper dive into the complexities of the human condition.

    Whilst this film is especially suited to those who enjoy complex themes, it also has the ability to connect with anyone thanks to it's small but diverse crew of relatable characters and captivating ideas. I encourage everyone to watch the film, and read the books for a unique and incredibly profound experience.

    Brilliant

    I watched on recommendation of a friend and I wasn't disappointed one bit, it left me captivated and was mentally stimulating unlike other films on the market. It was very brilliantly made and the overall concept was unlike any I'd encountered but I'd throughly recommend this film to anyone on any occasion.

    Thought provoking and surreal!

    Saw this at the Broadway Cinema in Letchworth, and was left feeling unsettled and curious. It was like no film I'd ever seen before, and the cinematography, editing etc was incredible. Very talented cast too.

    A movie like no other

    Just like going into a shamanic journey, you cannot come out of the viewing of Lightships unchanged and you will want to try it again, for more insights, healing and opening to the other dimensions. And just like a shamanic ceremony, you're rarely there by accident. This movie will touch you, make its way to your soul and if not now, one day, you will have a deja vu moment and will want to come back to the movie and read all of Maryann Rada's writings.

    You can feel all of the cast is totally involved in the making of this movie, phisically, emotionally, all of their being is present, Looking forward John Harrigan's next movie !
