WREL 312 - Religion and Film

3 Credit(s)

This seminar offers an introduction to the study of film and religion. We do not seek to understand how film and religion simply intersect in the medium of visual aesthetics, but how film could perform a religious worldview with distinct set of practices. This class, therefore, serves as a way to understand cinema as representing a religiosity in its own right, and a way of being in the world.
