Video Title: Time and the Soul - Interview with Dr. Jacob Needleman. YouTube Video Description - [Channel: Michael Goorjian. Uploaded on May 22, 2012]:
Based on the writings of internationally acclaimed philosopher Jacob
Needleman, Time and the Soul follows the life of Elizabeth Marcotte, a
young college student buckling under the weight of her own life.
Struggling to balance a hectic work schedule with an impossible class
schedule, Elizabeth suffers from the greatest scarcity of the modern
age...Time. Unaware that this starvation of time is robbing her of
meaningful experience in her life, she robotically stumbles from task to
task and class to class, until a philosophy class (taught by Jacob
Needleman) forces her to re-examine her life.
