The metaphysical aspects of being hit by lightning are presented, with accounts given both by lightning strike survivors and those whose culture believes that lightning strikes are indeed something of a higher power based on specific incidents. Six different stories are told. A man talks about the lightning strike about thirty years ago that almost killed him and did kill one of his friends, they who, among others, were working in a forested area of an Ontario farm that day. A storm chaser talks about the museum in France he created devoted to the effects of lighting on the landscape, the museum located in a region often hit by lightning storms. He also talks about his lifelong and changed fascination with the subject, including why he no longer allows his image to be used in association. A man, who was struck by lightning through a telephone line, talks about changing from a destructive person to one embracing the human experience, having created a volunteer palliative care organization for veterans. A largely black community in Cuba is presented, they who believe in the African lightning god Shango (known as Santa Barbara among Catholics), and what needs to be done to appease him whenever lightning occurs. Some Mexican mothers and one now teenaged survivor tell of a lightning strike that killed a group of children while worshipping at the Holy Cross on a local hilltop, and their views of religion because of that day. And a playwright reflects on nearly being hit when he was fourteen - thirty-four years ago - on a group hike at summer camp, that lightning strike which killed a friend a few feet away while crawling under a barbed wire fence. Because of his work, he looks at the incident from a perspective of trying to figure out if there is a reason for it happening or if it is all just random. Tying together these six stories is another looking at brain activity while in a creative pursuit, the brain waves being akin to electrical impulses, or small lightning strikes, and thus the larger picture of why lightning may have this primal effect on humans.
有很多难得一见的雷电视频，很多亲历闪电击中的当事人的采访，还有古巴村民们对雷雨闪电的信仰传统等... 但我个人认为片中人脑神经元,音乐与雷电的关系有些牵强。
