{"product_id":"exploring-film-and-christianity","title":"Exploring Film and Christianity","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book examines the connections between film and Christianity, considering how films express and depict Christian faith and spirituality and provide experiences associated with it. The notion of movement as immobility (from Simone Weil) is employed to describe film and its images in motion. Its movements can reconnect us with the movements of the world, those motions in which a mysterious sense of order, what Weil calls \"immobility,\" arises. Film is understood as a privileged form to access inscrutable spiritual (in)visibilities that can be linked with Christian concepts and practices. The chapters in \u003cem\u003eExploring Film and Christianity\u003c\/em\u003e offer new studies of famous directors such as Andrei Tarkovsky and Robert Bresson combined with analyses of recent notable films, including Terrence Malick’s \u003cem\u003eKnight of Cups\u003c\/em\u003e, Martin Scorsese’s \u003ci\u003eSilence\u003c\/i\u003e, and Denis Villeneuve’s \u003ci\u003eBlade Runner 2049\u003c\/i\u003e. Organized around the productive topics of theory, expression, depiction and experience, this volume is a valuable contribution to interdisciplinary research on film and Christianity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57259974492504,"sku":"9781032163741","price":56.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781032163741.jpg?v=1780037135","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/exploring-film-and-christianity","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
