The U Movie

A real pleasure and a great motivational piece that inspires and invigorates. Alex has made a film worth showing to multiple generations of youth who face severe challenges in an increasingly hyper active world. With so many things to do in this world it is shocking to see that so few people actually do what they want. Alex provides an excellent example of a young man finding his place in the world whilst still battling against the molds that would shape him. As a young student from first world Canada, Alex embarks on a journey across the globe with his best friend Tom. What begins as a triumphant journey is marked with ups and downs as the lad are exposed to the beauty and reality of the wider world. School, society and freedom are issues that are explored in the film as the travelers learn about themselves and other people who have taken the leap to follow their dreams. The U-Movie provides a global perspective on an age old question - "What is life?" The U-movie invites you to begin answering this question for yourself.

I watched The U Movie with my room mates, after watching we all wanted to travel. All the places the team visits are absolutely phenomenal, places I didn't even know existed! I really liked it when they switched back and forth from "study stress" and "soul searching". It really gives you a much needed perspective on how society constrains us. Its time for us to embrace the fact that we can in fact live our dreams! Our current reality is only a small percentage of what we've actually explored. The movie relates very well to anyone that watches it, its well grounded to anyone that just wants to break out and find their path. Watch this movie if you're undecided about your current situation, whether its to do with your career, or if you went through something difficult, take the time out to watch this, as it may give you the seeds you need to push forward!
