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.

Babylon (1980)
A drama directed by Franco Rosso.
A young man who works in a garage and is involved in the local music scene gets beaten up by the police, arrested falsely, kicked out of his home and loses his girlfriend.
I had to check wikipedia to make sure that was all there was to the plot. Most of the film is very dark (no pun intended) and the plot is a little confusing. I thought the characters didn't get developed very well and I couldn't see much of the setting. I'm rating it poor for not being clear.
