After a lightning strike to his pregnant mother lit up his brain, the lead character, Powder, searched for knowledge. This led to expansion beyond mental/material consciousness. The world was not ready for him. Without spoiling the end, I can say it is a phenomenon recognized in Buddhism and other traditions. Loved it!

1st -This movie is incredible, you must see it, its worth it. #2 Martin Lara's description before mine is way off, I doubt he watched the movie. The main character is not from another world, I can't tell you why he is different, it would spoil part of the movie but this is worth watching.
