Embark on a moving and visually stunning journey into the past! In the tragicomedy Everything Is Illuminated, directed by Liev Schreiber, a young American Jewish man named Jonathan (Elijah Wood) travels to Ukraine in search of the woman who saved his grandfather during World War II. He is accompanied by an unusual Ukrainian guide, the guide’s Western pop-loving grandson Alex, and a visually impaired blind dog. Based on Jonathan Safran Foer’s bestselling novel, the film is a unique story—infused with humor and deep humanity—about roots, memories, and the connections between people.
