The Fountain + Perennialism
Darren Aronofsky’s The Fountain is not a film about death. It is a film about what lies beyond it. Across three interwoven timelines, the film traces the journey of Tomas and Isabel through different incarnations, each struggling against mortality, against loss, and against the limitations of the flesh. But The Fountain is not a typical grounded meditation on grief; it is a cinematic journey to transcendence.
