Symbol is a wonderful tale of the harsh reality of life along a man's quest to reach absolution and his trail through life.
The director uses explicit visual aids to guide us through the materialistic needs of an everyday Japanese man and the things he must do to acquire them by forfeiting his freedom. Following the path of
maturity, he, whose name we will never learn reaches a point were mere material pleasure is not enough and needs to learn what it is like to be free. During this hard and long journey he will find himself doubting and forsaking everything. Only then will he be able to
slide open the door to real freedom and find himself as a new god. But still unable to shed his true human skin, he will influence the lives of people whose existence he is not even aware of.
Symbol is able to reach down and touch you in places that only religion was able to before. It is breathtaking up to the very last second.
