Joanna Vasquez ARONG 2010 Philippines Documentary color 43min Bemba, Nyanja, Engli Digi Beta
This film explores how the pains of everyday life are intricately linked to faith and the church in Zambia. Time seems to stand still as events unfold for a girl, a young mother and an elder. Amid recurring themes of death and renewal, we rediscover religion as a force to heal wounds that the modern world has long left behind. Sunday school, where children are taught about God, also becomes a
place where their parents learn to find comfort and relief from daily pressures.
