Directed by Thomas Lennon
“A diverse, well-rounded, and visually breathtaking documentary.”—Outtake
Directed by Oscar-winner Thomas Lennon (The Blood of Yingzhou District) and shot around the world by 40 filmmaking crews, Sacred immerses audiences in an exploration of spirituality across cultures and religions. At a time when religious dogmas dominate the world’s headlines, this film explores faith as a primary human experience. While global in scope, the film remains intensely intimate as its subjects navigate the milestones and crises of private life.
A selection of DOC NY. 2016, U.S., DCP, in English, Burmese, Japanese, Amharic, Malagasy, Arabic, French, Pashtu, Marathi, Hebrew, Krio, Tagalog, Nepalese, Punjabi, Polish, Haitian Creole, and Spanish with English subtitles, 86 minutes. Recommended for 13+
