"The most literate and stimulating cinematic talk session since My Dinner With Andre"
- John Hartl, Seattle Times......
In this widely acclaimed film, set on the impressive island-abbey of Mont Saint Michel in France, Liv Ullmann, Sam Waterston, and John Heard portray very dissimilar vacationers caught up in a spontaneous and life-affirming sweep of self-expression and new ideas.
MindWalk played in numerous theaters in the United States and has been shown repeatedly on cable television. It had a record run for over two years in a matinee theater in Los Angeles.
