to watch if you like:
- astronomy
- strong, independent, intellectual women uninterested in finding a husband
- the scientific and philosophical atmosphere of Alexandria in late antiquity
- internal and external religious conflicts between early Christian sects, Jews, and pagans in the 5th century
- the perceived dichotomy of science and religion, and how some people chose to either reconcile the two or ultimately sacrifice one for the other
- the problems concerning extreme fundamentalism and the interpretation of scripture
- Oscar Isaac
- gorgeous cinematography
- thought provoking (and if you're like me, existential crisis inducing) imagery of humanity's place on this tiny rock hurtling through space
