The Fountain is an odyssey about one man's eternal struggle to save the woman he loves. His epic journey begins in 16th-century Spain, where conquistador Tomas (Hugh Jackman) commences his search for the Fountain of Youth. Three stories, each set in a different time period, converge into one truth, as the Tomas of all periods—warrior, scientist and explorer—comes to terms with life, love, death and rebirth.
