Godspeed is a very complex movie to understand. Its a movie about a preacher who preaches ideas and seems to have the gift of healing others. It starts with one of his sessions at the church addressing some people. All the preacher does is help people understand their worries and face them. This is not really healing but a means to healing (the person releived of his stress automatically can concentrate and put in more energy into healing himself). The story then moves on to show the preachers family being killed and the preacher goes into exile to mourn for his family. One day he finds himself in the company of a girl who says that someone in her family needs help. She forces him to go with her to her place and there it all starts. The girl's brother is a person who tries to create a new world which depends on the principle "an eye for an eye". The clash between this guy, the preacher and the emotional tension that the girl undergoes is what the movie is all about. Visuals are real good and the locations very carefully chosen. A movie you can watch if you are looking for a complex subject and if you dont have anyone else at home. There is this one scene in the middle of the movie which requires Parental Guidance. Otherwise all is well.
