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.

Kirikou and the Sorceress (1998)
An animated adventure by Michel Ocelot.
A boy is born in an African village that is being tormented by an evil sorceress. The sorceress has an army of statues called fetishes that help her. The boy accomplishes great deeds and helps the villagers.
This is so cool. The animation style is very unique and the characters are well designed. The plot is awesome, almost epic. Everything is good about this film. I watched the English version a long time ago, but can no longer find that. For the review I watched the French one and the villagers' song about Kirikou is much better in French. I'm rating this best.
