In ancient Egyptian mythology, a dead person's soul would be weighed against the feather of truth in a ritual called a psychostasy. If their soul was lighter than the feather, it would ascend into the afterlife. Heavy souls were devoured by Maat, eater of the dead. Good films go to hard drive heaven while the recycle bin eats the rest.

The Art of Travel (2008)
An adventure directed by Thomas Whelan.
After leaving his fiancee at the altar and some misadventures in Nicaragua, a young man joins a team of people traveling through a rain forest.
The characters and plot were sub-par, but it was a very pretty waste of time. I liked the rain forest scenes, but was disappointed that they didn't have an ayahuasca trip scene in one of the small villages. The thing that really confused me is where did this guy get the money for all of this? Food, beer, hotels, train tickets, bus fare... it all adds up eventually. Another question is what did they eat in the rain forest for 300+ days? I'm rating this o.k. because, to quote the shit-lords, "it seemed stock to me".
