What am I? Why am I? What beings surround me? From whom and for whom do I have influence? What do I believe I can know for certain? These are the questions David Hume asked himself before he began writing. And these are questions we can find answers to on our own and with others in this docu-drama on his life and teachings. We experience his struggle to establish his position in terms of ideas which were being contested in his time. Although in one sense a member of the Establishment, we see the creative tensions in his relationship with it. We meet a number of people influential in the political, philosophical and religious discussions of his time and make the connections with the really important issues of our own time. Our own struggle for truth and meaning that is eternal is reflected here.
