I don't know if any of you have caught it but there's a fascinating show on hulu called "The Path"



It's about a cult which follows "the eye of light".
It's a Hulu original. I went into it skeptical for that reason but I came away extremely impressed.

The characters are quite complex and their relationship to the cult is ambiguous. It doesn't proselytize the cult nor demonize it. It raises some extremely interesting questions about the place of spirituality in our culture and does so with a sort of spiritual group that deviates in almost every significant way from Christianity and yet somehow manages to be similar in certain significant ways.

This show left me thinking - like, it is one of those shows that I just randomly find myself pondering because it's not only interesting but the way it's done everything is so symbolic.

I do highly recommend it, if anybody has Hulu.

The thing that makes shows like that so compelling isn't just the symbolism, it's how "purposeful" it seems to have been made. I haven't seen the show in question, but art or media like that makes you want to know the people behind it.

These carefully constructed themes and characters indicate that someone or some group along the "assembly line" has an awareness we aren't used to seeing in media meant for mass consumption.
