Description

Explore the intersection of religious tradition and film through Routledge Studies in Religion and Film. This book by Sean Desilets revisits Western religious cinema by applying scholarship on the political theology of St. Paul. Drawing inspiration from the account in the Book of Acts where Paul was blinded on the road to Damascus, the text examines how specific filmmakers use the camera as a god-blind mechanism. Through an analysis of works by directors such as Carl-Th. Dreyer, Robert Bresson, Pier Paolo Pasolini, and Carlos Reygadas, the author introduces the concept of hermeneutic humility. This study provides a deep look at how cinema positions itself between the viewer and the divine.
