The Journey is the Destination
Synopsis
Based on the true story of one of the great photographers of our generation, British-born Dan Eldon. His photographs of refugees from the Somalian civil war led to his employment as the youngest photojournalist ever hired by Reuters. His pictures helped draw the world’s attention to the crisis. This music-infused love story takes a turn when while covering the story that UN forces had accidentally killed 74 civilians, Eldon and three of his colleagues were stoned and beaten to death by a furious crowd.

Moore delivers a tour de force of ego unleashed. You can laugh with Maps to the Stars, but you can't laugh it off.
Rolling Stone
Cronenberg's vision is as bright as a sunlamp, sterile as an operating theatre and still as a morgue.
