Life of Pi
Overview
The story of Pi Patel is a visceral journey of survival, faith and exploration. His life is turned upside down however when his family decides to relocate to Canada — with their zoo animals in tow. A devastating storm then sinks their ship and leaves Pi stranded in the Pacific Ocean. He shares his lifeboat with an equally remarkable menagerie: a hyena, a zebra, an orangutan and a Bengal tiger named Richard Parker. This struggle for survival quickly turns into something more than both these creatures ever imagined, as together they will survive to face the unknown, but now they must learn to trust and care for one another too. Looming fish and glimmering oceans, an island humming with mystery and dangers, his journey slips between the transcendent and the terrifying.
