‘Map of the Human Heart’
New Zealand’s Vincent Ward has a visionary’s eye, a tribalist’s sympathies and a technologue’s expertise. This stunningly visualized tale of an Eskimo boy’s romantic tragedy is the most ambitious of all his works. It is about the clash between primitivism and civilization, map-making, the Dresden firebombing and the dangers of playing God. With Jason Scott Lee and Anne Parillaud (both pictured), Patrick Bergin and Jeanne Moreau (HBO Monday at 2 a.m.).
