The Fountain: Synopsis
What if you could live forever?
"The Fountain" is an odyssey about one man's eternal struggle to save the woman he loves. His epic journey begins in 16th-century Spain, where conquistador Tomas (HUGH JACKMAN) commences his search for the Fountain of Youth, the legendary entity believed to grant immortality. As modern-day scientist Tommy Creo, he desperately struggles to find a cure for the cancer that is killing his beloved wife, Isabel (RACHEL WEISZ). Traveling through deep space as a 26th-century astronaut, Tom begins to grasp the mysteries that have consumed him for a millennium. The three stories converge into one truth, as the Thomas of all periods -- warrior, scientist, and explorer -- comes to terms with life, love, death and rebirth.
At once sweeping and intimate, "The Fountain" is a story about love and coping with mortality, which unfolds over three vastly different time periods.

I've just seen the film. Yeah, I'm a few years late. However, I think you'll want to read this. I had a dream similar to a scene in the film just a month ago. So it was before I even knew the film existed. I dreamt of a tree growing out of me, through the exact same spot, left to the navel, where Thomas was cut, and through which plants grew out of Thomas. In my dream, it were more branches than that leafy flowers from the film. I can only remember pulling it out and it growing again and again, but I cannot recall the way it ended. I don't know if this is some kind of a sign, but I feel exilarated and disappointed at the same time, coz it could have been me directing this movie. :) :(
