I enjoyed that movie immensely. I thought it said a lot about how we view different cultures and how they view us, as well as how people come to terms with their own mortality. Making amends; standing up for what you believe in; I could go on and on about what I saw as themes in this movie. I didn't see it as a 'discovering' oneself movie at all.
