Examined Life

"The unexamined life is not worth living." Filmmaker Astra Taylor lets some very bright minds elaborate on Socrates' ancient maxim, including intellectuals such as Cornel West, Peter Simpson, Kwame Anthony Appiah and Martha Nussbaum, all in motion (sitting in a cab, rowing a boat, walking through parks, etc., some in New York, some in Toronto) It's tasty, highly digestible brain food of the celluloid variety touching on ethics, ecology, revolution, human dignity and more.
