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.

Howl (2010)
An art film by Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman.
Allen Ginsberg's work, Howl is explored in many ways. An interview, a court trial, some animations, and a narration are woven together to present a complete picture.
I can't really say much about plot, as the film was non-linear. The style was good and I liked the animations. The song about death at the end was really cool. I'm rating this adequate.
