Identify Ripper’s purpose in both his journey and in making the film. Explain why Ripper calls himself a “tourist of darkness,” drawing on as much factual information from the film as possible. Discuss the statement: We have the freedom to choose how we respond to whatever life throws at us. Choose one of Ripper’s horrifying stories and research its history. Debate the topic: Ripper’s stories are stories of hope.
